I signed up for this....

13.1 miles.  13.1 freaking miles! it's almost that far to Franklin.  and i decided to go that far on foot.
at 7am.
on a Saturday. 

13.1 miles is a long way. but there was never a moment where i thought "why did i do this?" to be honest, i thought there might.  i havent trained as hard as i could have, and i am recovering from as stress fracture.  there was the potential for things to go very wrong.  but finishing a half marathon is on the list.  i've wanted to do this for years.  and yesterday, i did it! i mostly ran 13.1 miles in 2 hours 40 minutes and 36 seconds.  the time is really not that impressive, but i did it!
