Wow... I don't know which was harder, teaching my first week of school, or running this half marathon! Collie and I decided to do this a few months ago, and we finally accomplished it! It felt so great to be able to say that we ran the whole thing. Thanks to Zach, Collie's parents, and a special thanks to Brad, Stacey and the Jackson fam; they were the most amazing support group in the world! They waited for us at a few of the points on the course with cheering and camera's and water! It was the best motivation in the world, especially at the finish line. I almost cried when I was running in and they were all standing there cheering=) 
5:00 am.
5:00 am.
This is the first time we saw everyone, on mile 6!
This was a sight for sore eyes... and legs, and feet, and every muscle in the human body!
Trav doctored us up afterwards, and even though I couldn't bend my knees, the ice helped a ton! Thanks for everyone's support! I'm so grateful to all of these amazing people in my life... and thanks Collie, for the awesome experience!
