Blogtober 2014 {Fall Bucket List}

You know what's totally awesome?  I decided to do Blogtober and didn't even realize that the prompt for Day 5 would be about bucket lists - which is awesome, because today I got to cross something off of my bucket list!  With the support and encouragement of my wonderful husband and dearest friends, I finished my first half marathon today!  The San Jose Rock n Roll 1/2 was so much fun and I'm definitely already sore, but I'm so happy I did it!  Plus, I totally exceeded my own expectations and finished in exactly 2 hours!  Woohoo!

These friends are the best and were so encouraging the entire way - it was awesome to finish together!  My parents were there, too, cheering us on around mile 12 when I was feeling pretty fatigued and that gave me the extra push I needed.  I felt so loved!

Feels good to see hard work pay off!  Hopefully I'll stay motivated to keep it up...

  1. Finishing a half marathon... amazing! I've always wanted to complete some sort of race but I'm not much of a runner, like, at all haha. Hopefully one day I can get there!

    Congratulations!
