26.2 miles...because i can!

i can't believe i just finished my first marathon. it was crazy amazing...and also the most painful thing i've ever done in my life. the run was spectacular the first 18-20 miles. then nausea set in and it SUCKED. but i made it...grouchiness and all. my husband had roses waiting for me. have i ever stated that he is totally the best...by far. mmmm. anyways. thought i'd share some pics. he didnt get any of me running through the finish line.. he didnt even see me. there were thousands of people. but this was the coolest race. there were 26 bands throughout the race, hundreds of cheerleaders, and the crowds were rad (except when i was hating life and then i would glare at them or pretend they weren't there.)

i made my shirt and got lots of "that's awesome, that inspires me, Praise the Lord. " and i got to pray with my teammates before running. God is totally rad! amen and amen to that! enjoy the pics!
