Today was the day of the big race and I'm happy to say I finished in one piece! It was an absolutely beautiful day, great course, and wonderful spectators. I ran a lot slower than anticipated but I finished and really had a great time. Brad, Noah, and our friends who we were staying with all came out to support me and it was fun to see them along the course. Noah especially as he was taken aback by me running out of the crowd to give some sweaty kisses! To top it all off we have raised $2500 for CHASA which we are so excited about. Thank you again to all who donated-we are very lucky and blessed to have such amazing family and friends.
We made it home this evening and Noah again decided not to nap so it was a bit of a long drive. Luckily goofy Mommy was able to keep him entertained and I'm proud to say I only had to resort to Elmo videos for the last 30 minutes of the trip. Needless to say we are all exhausted and ready for bed. I will write out all the details of the run tomorrow. For now here are a few pics from after the race-Noah half asleep and me ready to collapse!
