I can't believe I haven't written on this since April! But we officially ran the 1/2 marathon on August 8! It was amazing and so so so hard. The first 3 miles were my fastest miles I have ever run and it felt awesome- when you get in with a group and your adrenaline is going 100 mph it just felt like I was flying. And it helped that I was going downhill he he ha ha. On mile 7 they had you go uphill for almost a full mile and that just about broke me - I definitely slowed down after that. And then once I got to mile 10 I wasn't sure if I could keep going - I wanted to stop and yet knew that I couldn't and Brian was right there pushing me and complimenting me - it was so good to run with him. My brain kept telling me to stop, but Brian and my heart kept telling me to do it. As soon as I ran past the finish line I was ready to burst into tears - it was AWESOME! I'm definitely running another one!!
I passed my mental and physical challenge!! I'm very proud of myself!!

Wow....way to go Trina! Someday...maybe.
Way to go! That is truly amazing. I remember cheering Jon on the last little bit and I got so emotional because I was so proud of him. I bet Brian was a Proud Husband that day. You are an inspiration. Can't wait to see you this October.
You are a true inspiration to me. I want to do it someday too. CONGRATULATIONS! Great Job!!!
Way to go! Your story reminds me of the "mormon message" they had on the lds website last week.
