September 4th was our one year wedding anniversary ... what better way to celebrate than to run our first half-marathon together (Bill Seymour Half-Marathon in Grand Island, Nebraska).Hands down, it was the easiest (and best) race we've done yet. The weather was in the 60s, the course was completely flat (literally, you could see for miles out), water stations at every mile marker, amazing volunteers that cheered us along, we met another fellow runner and had great company for most of the run, spectators made us feel like we were saving the world, we finished in 2 hour and 20 minutes, and it was our anniversary - kind of hard not to be in the best mood on a wedding anniversary. It was surprisingly easy (okay, running from mile 9 to 10 felt a bit long) and made me fall in love with Nebraska.
Nebraska is the place to run.
Update would you??? The time is getting close!
