Last minute needs at the expo

I know I can't believe I've been back since Sunday night and haven't posted anything yet. But in my defense I had to work on Monday night and also again tonite (back to the grind stome). The run went extremely well. I finished my 10 miles in 1 hours 56 minutes 53 seconds. I was quite pleased with myself as that was 15 minutes faster than I had anticipated! It really makes a huge difference running with others. The experience was awesome and I'm now a little bummed it's over. I may have to do another 1/2 marathon sometime soon. I think I'm crazy....lol! Anyways, I don't have any pictures of the race up yet because I couldn't run with my camera. But Liz took some and I will try and get those and get them up soon. Here are some other pictures from the weekend though. If you want to look at some pictures from the actually race, during and after check out Liz's website.....the link is to the right of my page.
