Well I did it!!!  I couldn’t blog about it because I was too scared I would let you guys down again.  I agonized over my decision all week long – do nothing at all, wimp out and run the half, or kill myself and try for the whole thing.  Well…

I signed up yesterday, did zero training runs, and despite serious lack of confidence and paralyzing fear, I woke up this morning and ran 26.2 miles through the streets of Charlotte in absolutely freezing cold weather. 

A much longer recap post is coming later (with lots of pictures!), but for now, a photo of success.  Not my fastest, not my slowest, but quite possibly my most proud…

(And definitely my coldest!!)
