13.1 Miles

We did it! Tom and I ran and completed our first ever half marathon. Last weekend we ran in the Seattle Rock-n-Roll marathon.  This was Tom’s Christmas gift to me. I’ve been wanting to do one for some time, so he took the initiative and signed us up. The gift was really bigger than just signing us up, since Tom has always claimed to HATE running.  However, over the past months as we trained for the race, Tom has begun to enjoy running.

The race was great. We ran it together, which made it even more special and we finished in 2 hours—better than we had thought we would! This picture is of us after the race, and yes we are enjoying our complimentary MGD 64 beer!
