yesterday i ran the huntington beach half marathon. it was cold, rainy, and windy. i did another half marathon in september and that day it was hot and humid. i guess the bad weather just follows me. but despite the weather and my grumpy attitude about the weather i ended up having a great race. i ran with my great friend dai which really helped me get my mind off of the cold, and seth made me a great mix of music that kept me smiling. so with my head phones on, my visor on, and my friend to my right i put my head down and just ran. i ran and ran and ran for 2 hours and 6 minutes, my best time yet :) i can't say why i love running so much, but i just do. even though i am not the best, i love competing with myself to see how well I can do. the feeling of crossing the finish line knowing that you just pushed yourself phyically and mentally feels so good. i think i am addicted :)
thank you's-

Jenni- You did awesome! I am so proud of you and your time! Way to go to cutting off minutes from your previous race! I can't wait to run with you again and hopefully will be smarter about my eating! Congratulations!
