Finisher!

Today I ran my first half marathon! What an experience!
My day was filled with joy and tears of emotion! I just can't believe what I have accomplished in one year! A year ago at this time, I couldn't even run 2 miles, and I was stressing about if I would be able to run the 5k that I had signed up for in December. Here I am, one year later, completing my first half marathon, and knowing that I am already signed up for another!
It's that sense of accomplishment, knowing what I have overcome, and how I am not only making myself proud, but am making others proud as well, that brought tears to my eyes. I was a little embarrassed that I was getting so emotional, but I don't think anyone noticed. I just can't believe it.
Now, if only I could take the rest of the day off...
oh well! :)
