SWOOSH that off my list!

I have always had a 'running' bucket list of things I would like to see, do, or try before I die...
Speaking of running...a marathon has always been on my list!

I have always been an athletic girl and a fairly regular exerciser, but running has never been my favorite thing to do...However this year my New Year's resolution, like so many, was to get back into shape to feel healthlier physically and mentally...it wasn't easy at first, but I have actually really gotten into running and set my first goal...a Half-Marathon!

This past weekend I went to Myrtle Beach to attempt this goal, which was only to complete the 13.1 miles without walking...

The race was both a half and full marathon, with 5,000 people just running the half with me!
The perfect weather, great scenery and motivational ambiance all added up to a complete success! 
I am now looking for the next race I can sign up for....
