This past weekend I completed my second half marathon. I completed it over 12 minutes faster than my previous attempt in April. I was able to increase my average pace from 11:11 min/mi to 10:14 min/mi. I finished with a time of 2:14:14. I'm now signed up for my first full marathon in April at the same race I completed my first half.

    Thanks. And I notice my smile now in my photos also. It's still weird to like to view photos of myself when for many years I never wanted to look. But now not only do I see a smaller person, but a much happier one as well.
