Heading to the finish line

I forgot to mention that I ran my first half marathon on March 17th (St. Patrick's Day)
in Salida, Colorado with my friend and training partner Dana. We finished the 13.1 mile run in 2 hours and 15 minutes. Not too bad for our first half marathon ever! That is the farthest either of us have ever run so we feel like it was quite the accomplishment. We decided that we are going to go ahead and train for a full marathon - 26.2 miles. Yikes! We think we can do it though. Some other runners we have met have told us that it is actually easier to run a full marathon believe it or not. Hmmm....we'll see. Our goal is to run the Silverton Marathon in October.
