Saturday was the day. My hubby, his sister and I ran the Country Music 1/2 Marathon in Nashville. We trained, and we prayed the rain would wait until we finished running. Actually, by mile 10 I was thinking a little rain would feel pretty good. It was the predicted lightening I wanted to hold off.
I would like to say I am thrilled with the outcome, but I'm a little disappointed. However, in an effort to be more positive I will say this. I AM CONSISTENT. We have run this race three years in a row. My times? 2:34, 2:33 and 2:34. I still enjoyed every minute of the experience and this year I can still walk up and down stairs! The first year I could barely walk the next day, last year it was just stairs that gave me problems. So, I guess I should look at the bright side. I may not be any faster, but my body is stronger. Here are some pictures from the day.

Congrats on a great race! That's so cool that you got to run with your hubby! And definitely shows improvement that you weren't sore this time! WTG!
I love all the pictures! Congratulations on a great race! Don't stress about the time. You are definitely getting stronger! That is what counts!
I have a race coming up that I know I will certainly not run my best time. Do I wimp out and not even do it and regret it down the road when I can't even run anymore, or do I just go have fun. I think you would do the latter and I agree.
