New PR's

What a great two weeks it has been. My weight is still fluctuating 3-4 pounds but my running has been amazing!!

I ran the Coal City Only Fools Run at Midnight last weekend and I finished in 26:30- Yes sir that is a new PR for the 5K! I will hit 25:00mins before I know it! A shout to Jessica for letting me try and keep up with you :)

Yesterday I ran the Illinois Half Marathon what a wild ride that was!! Let me start by saying that last year I ran the Chicago Half in September and my time was 2:42:57. This year I finished in 2:10:32! I was under a 10mins a mile! This was an amazing race and I was so into it! Mentally and physically I was on my A game! I can honestly say that I think I could actually run a full marathon...shhhhh don't tell Nichole!! It is an amazing feeling when you get to beat yourself. I run for me and I run against myself. There is no better feeling than being a better me! I am excited to see what the next half brings!!

The Friday night before the half Jessica and I ran the 5K...we tried really hard to stay at a 12min pace but that did not happen. We had a ton of fun getting to "be lazy" on this race.  

Thank you to everyone who can to cheer me on!! I appreciate it so much!!
