Seaside 1/2 Marathon

Chad showed up to support the crew
Can't say it was a strong finish, but I finished. 2:09:12

Finishers


All the girls: Misty, Hillary, Tether, Kelly, Me, Heather, Esther, & Angela


Representing Shoreline Church


And the WINNER is Andrew Norton! I was basking in reflected glory a bit, since I'm friends with the guy who won the whole thing - Time 1:14:58 !!! In case you don't know, that really really FAST!

Today I'm limping and not planning to work out for the next few days. About 10 miles into the race I was trying to remember why in the world I do this stuff (???!!!). Every joint and muscle in my body was in pain - then eventually I crossed the finish line and realized, once again, that this is why I do it - to finish!
