Half Marathon and Stagget

So this day has been a long time in the planning.  Lara and I have been training for about 4 months to do this half marathon.  It was the hardest yet most rewarding thing I have ever done.  Growing up I was the least athletic.  I avoided running at all costs and even faked a few injuries to get out of gym class.  We were the fast on the course today but we finished it and I am so very proud of us.  I am so thankful that I had Lara pushing me along and encouraging me to try this or I never would have done it.  Will I do more?  Maybe but just knowing I have done one is great.

Our after race treat.

After the big race which was in Millerville, just south of Calgary.  I went back to Calgary to celebrate one of my best friends up coming wedding at her stagget.  Tammy and I have been friends for 20 plus years and she is near and dear to me.  She had a 60's theme stagget and we had professional pictures taken and makeup done.

It was a great way to spend the day.

I love this girl and am so thankful for her friendship.

The perfect ending to our day was seeing a rainbow.
