Fontana 1/2 Marathon

(before @ 4:30am)

This past weekend I ran the Fontana 1/2 Marathon. It was very fun. I've done 2 full marathons (SD Rock and Roll and Carlsbad), but always by myself. My parents decided to run this one with me. My mom even twisted her ankle 2 weeks ago and still came and ran it and did amazing. I was super happy with my time, even though it was pretty hot out there that day. The 1/2 was a great distance. My body can't do any more full marathons and it's too time consuming. I didn't do much training for this and felt good, so I think I'll stick with this for the future :-) Thanks Mom and Dad! and Thanks to Nita for letting us crash at her place so we only had to get up 4:30 to get there instead of even worse early hours to get there!
I finished in 1 hr 45 min. It's an 8:05 mile avg so I was super happy with that.

Yes, my mom looks like my twin. We almost had the same outfit on and didn't even plan it.
All done. Ready to get home.

It was fun being there with you to record your great accomplishments and watch you prepare the night before. But I was so glad I was at the finish line waiting and not running with you during the marathon! Yikes! Maybe I will walk one someday . . . Now that would be fun. Good job to all of you! : )
