The Big Race
Well, earlier in the year I had voiced a resolution for myself and am proud to say that I accomplished it this last weekend. Some friends and I headed to Myrtle Beach, SC for a girls weekend. We had a blast shopping and eating and shopping, and shopping. We ended it with the Inaugural Myrtle Beach Mini Marathon . It was a blast and I can say I will do it again. We had been training forever for this and I was a little worried once the race was nearing because I hadn't ran much the 3 weeks before the race (the joys of having a husband in the military). Much to my surprise I did better than I expected and am very pleased with the results, 13.1 miles in 02:14:27.

I had a blast this weekend. Let's do it again! Congratulations on your run. You did fantastic!!!
You rock!
You look great.!!!What a great accomplishment for you. I am a little jealous, but not enough to run a half marathon, maybe on a bike. You are a supermom!!! Keep up the good work. Love mom
No Lace, I think you rock for holding down the fort this weekend! Thanks again, my kids already are asking when you can come back.
You are my hero! Seriously, the only thing I will run to is chocolate...sad, but very true!
I've commented like 1000 times on your run but really, can you get enough comments when it is for something as great as this? Answer: NO.
Your girls trip sounds like it was so much fun and I'm sure it was well needed. If you are ever planning on doing a run around where I'm at, let me know. I want to do another one too.
Congrats on the run. That is quite the accomplishment especially with four kids. Good time too! I bet it was a blast to have a girls weekend with lots of shopping. I'm glad you got to do it all. And the beach view is amazing!
next year i am in.. love your blog :)
Katie, you should be so proud of yourself! Maybe one day I will get off my lazy bum and get in shape too! Good for you for not giving up!
Way to go! Proud of you.
Congrats again on your race! Love that cool medal!! Thanks for your kind comments on mine!
