So Emily was inspired and after about 6 years we decided to run another half marathon (just about the same time since we last made a post!) We made the decision around the beginning of December 2019 to run the race on January 11, 2020. It was a great decision for a number of reasons....first, it kept the holiday calories at bay! But it also allowed us to focus on hope and forward movement during a difficult time of year. In addition to the post-holiday malaise, we remember both Tom and Gator who we lost around this time of year. We were happy to finish the course with a 10:02 pace, though our run apps and the race organizers had some disagreement over the actual length of the course. We've slowed a bit since the Bluegrass, but for this time of our lives slowing down a bit is not necessarily a bad thing.
We had a great stay in downtown Charleston and are loving the idea of exercise tourism....I'm looking for our next event, though it may require more wheels than heels.
