Half Marathon! Biggest Loser's Tara Costa & Michelle Aguilar -- so cool
I ran the biggest loser half marathon this morning. It was great -- well mile 11 and 12 were pretty tough, but it was awesome to complete it!
I started out w/ the 9min pacers, but ended the race with the 9:30 group. It worked out well. I did take 200 calories worth of pure sugar goo during the race. I think that helped a lot, but seeing all those grams of sugar on myfitnesspal is kind of messing with me right now.
When I crossed the finish line TARA COSTA gave me a high five -- so cool
I got very dizzy after crossing and Michelle Aguilar came over and just made sure I was ok. She chatted with me for a bit -- she was super nice. It was pretty awesome!
My time was 2 hours 3 minutes and 39 seconds. I was hoping for under 2 hours, but am still super proud of myself. I was an hour faster than my only other attempt at a half (when I was 80 lbs heavier).
I am wicked sore -- but still motivated to complete the Chicago Marathon in October -- oh my gosh that will be tough! I think I need to let go of time goals.
