On Sunday, November 14th I ran my first half marathon since becoming pregnant and having Jack. It was so much fun! It was a beautiful morning with temperatures in the mid 50's. I ran the race with one of my best friends, Jami. We did great! We ran our 13.1 miles in 1 hour and 47 minutes. We even had to dodge an on coming train! One of my other best friends, Vicki, ran in the race and she did awesome as well, despite losing her at the finish! There were over 30,000 participants that ran either the full marathon or the half. So after we searched for Vicki, we finally found out she was back at her hotel, which was smart on her behalf because we were freezing looking for her and she was nice and warm in her hotel room.

The medal!
After we figured out where Vicki was we went back to our hotel and showered and packed up the car. That shower felt SO good! Then Jami and Colter went to lunch with us to Lulu's Bakery. This was our appetizer:

This was a 3 pound cinnamon roll! Very yummy and super sweet! Then we had burgers and felt re-energized for our drive home to the valley.
