This is a excellent place to share my happiness and joy of running my 2nd 1/2 marathon. I wanted to give you a brief update on the beginning of my running experience. I started running last October 1, 2010, signed up for a 10K race in December. I was pretty excited about completing this race and so I decided to sign up for 1/2 Marathon in May 2011, with a training class. I did it in 3:02:30, my goal was to finish the race and that I did. I took on another challenge to race my 2nd 1/2 this past October 30, 2011, the LA Rock N Roll, with my running team. The day was cool, just the way I like it, I started out fast then got into my pace. I finished it in 2:41:30. My goal for this race was 2:45:00. I thank God for giving me the strength and determination to push my body to another level. I have already signed up the 1/2 OC Marathon in May 2012, my goal to run this race is 2:30:00!!! Bring it On!!:heart::flowerforyou: :heart:
