I just finished my half marathon in 2 hours 5 min (13 sec)! I could have done better, but my knee started to hurt around mile 5 so I had to walk more than I wanted to.

The up side is - 1200 + exercise calories to eat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That's no small feat!! Way to go!! Now, what to eat.....?? I think it is definitely brownie worthy (one of my fav's of life's indulgences) however, better yet -- a wonderful massage!!

    That's awesome! Keep it up!

    Did you just look around the internet for local runs in your area?

    It was a run they do every september and ads for it were all around my gym. I have a neighbor who runs it too so helped me remember.

    We have a sioux falls running club website that lists everything online.

    My high has now worn off and I think I could sleep for hours!
