Ikea Half Marathon

So when I decided to do the marathon everyone told me I should run a race or two before just to get the feel of it since I had only done one little 5k a couple of years ago. After realizing I only had a few short weeks to go I finally looked around and found a half marathon right here in Pittsburgh! I was supposed to run 20 miles (my last big run before the marathon, woohoo!) so I ran the race and came home to finish up the last 7 miles. My boys couldn't make it to the race so Jordan snapped this sweaty pic of me when I got home:) It was super fun, but weird that it was no big deal to me. Lame huh. I ran it in 2 hours and 4 minutes, a 9.5 minute/mile pace. Maybe now everyone will believe me that I really am a slow runner, not just humble! So with one big race under my belt I am off to Utah tomorrow! My knees pretty much always hurt and my physical therapist has told me I probably should not be running. I am going to try to do it anyways of course. So wish me luck!, but don't tell me to break a leg because I am worried that might just happen (well a knee anyways) :(
