Running my first half marathon tomorrow!

So...this surgery truely is a miracle.  If you would have told me a year and half ago I would be running a 1/2 marathon I would have told you that you were certifiable.  But here I am, running 13.1 miles tomorrow and os excited about it!!!  I LOVE my gastric bypass!

So how'd it go?  That's so exciting!!  congrats!

I survived! Finished in 2 hours, 53 minutes which was a little slower than I wanted to be but still under 3 hours so yay!  I am still very sore but that gets better day by day.  This was a major accomplishment and I never in a milion years dreamed it would be something I would do so that part is thrilling!

Rebecca!
You totally rock!  U R my hero!  I am in awe of runners!!!!  Wow!

Weigh 2 go!  So what's your next adventure????!!!!

 I'm hooked for sure.  I'm running the Phoenix 10K on Sunday and then the next big one is the PF Chang's 1/2 marathon in January.  I'm toying with doing a full marathon in the summer but I don't know...that's a really freakin' long time to be running! 

I've heard from other friends that running becomes addictive!  I keep asking myself why THAT couldn't have become my outlet for "addiction transference"!  (I need a 12 step program for traveling and shopping!)

You should shoot your story over to O.H.!!!!  Inspire girlfriend!

wow you rock!!  I'm in awe:D  I hope to be able to do that too someday!!

Outstanding...
