Overall I had a great time! This was a wonderful experience & I'm so glad I got in one "real" race experience before my full marathon. As I was running today I actually started thinking "this is a lot of fun". Of course, there were bands playing and people cheering all along the way, so that helped :-). One good thing about running at the pace I do is that I have time to take everything in and enjoy it....for a really LONG time-LOL!
What a fun day!

"Going for it" at the end, so I could make it to my 2:30 goal.

My TNT teammates!

Tricia and Zion came to cheer for me too!

My VERY brave hubby even came with all three of the kids to cheer me on at the finish line. Thanks Babe!

Woo HOo!! I'm so proud of you Amber!
What are those black things that you guys are wearing around your knees? I'm curious. . .
OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!! Your ARE Wonder Woman!!!!
Karen-
Those "black things" are patella bands. They just help support your knee. I should be wearing two because both of my knees were hurting a little that day, but I only had one.
Jules-
I'm hardly Wonder Woman. 2.5 hours means I was running over an 11 minute pace the whole time. That's pretty average for me, but pretty stinkin' slow to the rest of the running world-LOL! I have to think of these things in "personal" terms though, because 2.5 hours was good for ME. I love how you and Karen are my personal cheerleaders. I feel so loved!
You are SO loved!
