Just finished my half marathon

It was awful, but I finished. Around mile 6 I got violently sick and I threw up and walked for the entire mile, but at mile 7, I found a running buddy and ran the rest of the way. (13.1 miles) Finished with a time of 2:24:59. I was shooting for under 2:20, but oh well, I blame it on the walking and sickness. Still managed to get 2nd in my age group though and a trophy! I can't walk now though, and I have to go to work all night (on my feet).
