Someone here may or may not be a cry baby. Every time I watch a video of a half marathon OR marathon I start tearing up at the idea of finishing my first race. I mean the videos don't have to even be the least inspiring just someone running and there in the distance a finish line. It is truly amazing how running effects you. Like I've said running is a personal thing, it is all about you and only you can make it happen and the thought of running 13.1 and maybe even 26.2 with Birdie just makes me a big ol' tear factory!
At the end of the day there is nothing better then personal accomplishment. No one can stop you, no one can make you do it. It's all about you.
The idea of my husband standing at the finish line after my first half marathon... the thought of me standing alone at 4am with tens of thousands of people waiting to run the Disney half and my family waiting at mile 9 for me to pass. The joy and excitement I get, the pride I feel is just...kinda crazy.
