It is now Tuesday, and Maddie and I are both alive - which means we survived the Med-City Half Marathon that we ran on Sunday. We had a very ambitious goal to finish in 1 hour and 57 minutes (9 minute mile pace) and wouldn't you know - we were so close! We stuck to that pace for the first 8 or so miles, and then a few hills got the best of me. We ended up finishing in 2 hours, 6 minutes and 29 seconds - pretty awesome (considering we both got less than 5 hours of sleep!)
You know what we were trying to figure out at every mile marker? Who is going to win our bet? At first, I knew it was going to be Leah, with a guess of 2 hours 2 minutes...but then those hills dang it! As we approached our last 3 miles, we knew Christian had it in the bag. With a guess of 2 hours 6 minutes and 34 seconds, he was a mere 5 seconds off our actual time! Holy Crap! Way to go Christian - spend your $5 wisely!
