Can I just say, this weekend was simply exhilerating.
There was only one glass of wine involved, but still. Just exhilerating.
Saturday was finally the big day....RACE day. I thought I would be a little nervous, but honestly, I was just stoked. I have been training for this race since March and for the day to finally arrive was surreal.
YES. I realize it's not the frickin' Boston Marathon or anything. But for me, it was MY Boston Marathon.

My Saturday was FILLED with....you guessed it. SoBe.
And thank the LORD for all that SoBe. Because it was 100 degrees outside.
Awesome Venue.
And Awesome Friends....who came to support & brave the heat. My parents also came...but sadly, we didn't get a picture together. Darn it!
On the way down, we had to stop & admire Kansas City's FABULOUS Graffiti Art.
I'm supposed to be running.
Get it?
And the race begins.......635 runners.
I DID IT!!
I ended up finishing with a time of 31 minutes & placed 300th out of 635.
Hell to the yes.
Quite a weekend. How about you all??

31 minutes? Thanks freakin' fantastic! I think it would take me an hour to run a 5k. Do you like running? Think you'll do another?
You are so inspiring!! Way to kick some serious booty!!
PS. I just stalked your blog trying to find a certain post to link to in my blog for tomorrow. I swear I'm not a legit stalker though.
Oh my goodness I am in LOVE with your outfit. That top is something I need to have! And the shoes to match are perfect!! Great job :-)
Great job! Congratulations! :)
Wow!! Impressive time! And adorable shoes, I love them. And I definitely would not have survived that heat, way to go!
Congrats on an awesome job in your race! You finished in the first half which is HUGE!!! I would be in the last 10% if I even finished, haha. Very proud of you!

I'll say it again! So proud of you! What a great accomplishment, and you finished so well! Yay!!
