I finished the race! My first half marathon and I finished all 13.1 miles. I seriously can’t believe it.
This was the gear for the day. Knee high St. Patty’s socks, Sparkly Soul head wraps, and green glitter ring fingers.
Since there were 25,000 other runners, we decided to skip parking and ride the good ole Metro. This is Rachel and my excited 5am faces.
Casey and Ashley completed our running quad.
These were all the other runners that were squished in the Metro with us. Total fun.
As we were running, the hubs came to take our pics.
The sun made for some doozies of Coop, but that is the finish line in the background.
And after we all finished we met up for a photo op before limping to the car.
Here’s all my details:
- 5 Km
- 10 Km
- 10 Mi
- 31:33
- 1:02:57
- 1:44:49
- Pace
- Chip Time
- Clock Time
- 10:37
- 02:18:59
- 02:50:38
My total time was 2:18:59. My goal was just to finish, but I had put in an estimated time of 2:30, so I’m pretty excited. I’m already thinking about doing another one in May…I’m addicted.
You go girl! I SO wanted to run this one as well, but the dr said NO 🙁 There is always next year!
Congrats, Molly! That is such a huge accomplishment, particularly for someone with two young kids! I am hoping to start running once I get the clear around April 15th. My sights are set on a 5 K, much less ambitious than you. 😉
Congrats! 2:18 is a fantastic time, especially when you have two little babies. I'm training for one in May and it's going verrrry slow. I used to do 10 minutes miles but I'm lucky if I get 13 these days. Eeek. Oh well, I just want to finish. Looks like it was a blast!
I am running my first 1/2-m next month. Can't wait! So glad to hear you did SO well! You give me hope! heheh!! Love your bright pink shirt!!
WOW! That is so awesome. Good for you! You look great in your after photo too. Looks like you barely broke a sweat 😉
So proud of you! And I had so much fun with all you girls. Can't wait for you to get your butt over here… Oh, and its May 5th not 18th! We need to get on the ball if we are going to run that one!
Can I ask? Just what is it about it that has you addicted? What do you like about it? I'm seriously curious.
Oh, and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
YES! Nice work lady, you rock!
YAY!!!! Great job Momma!!! What an excellent time for your first half!!! That's what I am shooting for in July. Seeing your pics makes me wish it was next week, although my body is not ready for 13 miles yet 🙂 IN time 🙂 SO SO SO Proud of you for finishing!!
I'm so proud of you! In fact… I ran 4 miles yestereday. See.. I'm catching up! Well, run/walk hahhahaha
Yayy! Congratulations!! So exciting! And 12 minutes under your goal time. Nice job girl!
Awesome job! How long ago did you have Callan?
I'm due the end of May and contemplating running a half on Sept. 9th. Just not sure if I'll be ready or not…
Good job!! Once you do one you are totally addicted 🙂
You are very inspiring!
You've inspired me to do one of these! Do you have any tips for a newbie? 🙂
