My friend and I had been training for the Hollywood Half Marathon for the past 6 weeks. Every weekend, we dreaded the long runs....7 miles, 8 miles, all the way up to 12 miles the weekend before. On the day of the event, adrenaline was pumping and we were ready. My goal was to finish under 10/mi. Not only did I reach my goal, but I crushed it! I felt amazing the entire race and finished in 2:01 hrs @ 9:17/mi!
Yes, it is still dark! We got up at 3:30AM to take the train into Hollywood for a 6AM start time!
Here we are halfway through the race, still feeling awesome!
Here we are coming in at the finish line! The best part of this video is overhearing a man say "That's what I'm talking about! That's victory right there!"
We finished right before the rain started! What a wonderful experience and a wonderful race! And yes, we did decide to twin it!
