City of Oaks Half Marathon-Nov. 4th

Adam and I decided that we would start training for a half marathon over the summer. However, with work schedules and weekend plans, it left us with little time to train. Several nights we were out running in the neighborhood at 10:30pm. Other times we were running in the pitch black dark at 5am. Long story short, we completed our goal on Sunday, Nov 4th-Race Day! Our plan from the beginning was to stay together and run the entire thing (thanks to our friend Ash's encouragement!). The course started at the NC State Fairgrounds and went through downtown and back up to the RBC center. The last mile was the hardest and finally crossing the finish line was the best feeling we had felt in a long time! It will be long time before we run 13.1 miles again!
