Today I ran my first 1/2 Marathon. I ran the Springbank 1/2 Marathon in 3 hours, 6 minutes and 10 seconds! I am pretty happy with that result considering I did not have an ideal training week leading up to the race, due to a number of reason. I had no issues with my foot today just the regular aches and pains that come from running that distance.

| Me at the starting line! | | | | |
|
 |
| The first portion was a loop around back through the start, so this is around 2.5K |
|
 |
| This is just before the 4K mark |
 |
| Around the 19K |
 |
| Coming up the the finish! |
|
 |
| Crossing the finish line! They had announced my name so everyone was cheering me on! |
|
 |
| Getting my medal! |
 |
| My medal! |
