Today I did the KC marathon. It was a great feeling to complete a long time goal. I am not a fast running by any means. In fact I started at the back of the race and walk/ran with my 2 friends, by the end I was running when others around me where tired a walking. For my first I think I did a good job conserving my energy on the first half of the race. Which from what I understand is the ultimate goal for a marathoner. I do my second marathon in one month --- Gobbler Grind is next. If the thought of doing a 1/2 or full marathon has ever crossed your mind I encourage you to explore it. There are many people who walk, or walk/run marathons. I burned 2650 calories this morning. You better believe I am eating pizza for dinner!!!
I am loving your recipes. Keep them coming. I still need to post my dinner recipe, but maybe tomorrow, I need a nap.

Good job!
I was looking at the marathon route in the paper earlier this week. I was surprised that it went so far south, but I guess that's what it takes to get the miles in.
And I hope that pizza was gooooood. :)
Awesome, Mendy, and congrats on your achievement!! I was there - but only did the 5K. It was fun and a nice course, but I've been having some issues with my knee the past several days...so, I wasn't at all thrilled with my time. I did have fun though!!
