Santa Barbara Half Marathon Weekend

Some of my fellow TNT teammates completed the SB Half Marathon this weekend. Any excuse to go to SB is always a good one for me, so I ventured up there for the weekend. I signed up for the 5K but needed to do 10 miles of training that weekend, so I ended up walking most of the half marathon. I turned around at the 8 mile mark and walked the 2 miles back to the finish line since the course went in a loop. I heard afterward that I skipped out right before a hill! Lucky! It was a great feeling coming in to the finish line. Even though I hadn't really completed a full event (well technically I did about three 5Ks!) I ran in and it felt great to have people cheering me in and shouting positive things! I knew I was there because I was supporting a great cause!
