Donna 26.2 Marathon

Well I did it I ran the 1/2 in Jacksonville.. It was a great day... but warm much warmer than I thought.. almost 80 and I had trained in 30 to 40 degrees so what a difference.. I did the best thing that I could I slowed down and finished.. I ran with a pace group.. smart move.. Then I met a guy and we ran together.. It was also a smart move.. We finished it.. a bit slower than I wanted but I finished.. This was the first year for the race and it was a blast . They did a great job.. There were no water issues and swag was good.. I think my dad had a good time as well.. See the pictures below.

Just getting ready to start the race.... Man is it warm.

Here we go ...

Well We did it .. This Danny we ran together at about the 1/2 way point....

Well here it is I got my metal.. This is the first year for the race and the metals were nice..
