Personal best

Well we did it!!! About at the 10 mile mark, Sherry summed it up very well. She told me this was just like birthing babies. Looking back at it 4 days ago, I agree. While I was walking the 1/2 marathon I was wondering what I was doing, I wasn't having a whole lot of fun. It was hot, I was thirsty, my feet hurt, then my hips hurt, then my back hurt, then my legs hurt ........and then my tail was frozen (for those of you who watch 101 Dalmations). I needed to pee and I wasn't going to wait in a big line so I would hold it another mile. But today it wasn't really that bad and I want to do another one.

All that said I am proud to annouce that our times were a personal bests. Below are Sherry's and my times.
