The name sounds worse than the run.
It was a beautiful, snowy day...perfect temperature for running (-5C) and no wind.
(Remember last year's first 13.1mile run? My First Half)
Well this one wasn't so analyzed or lamented over.
I just showed up and ran... for the most part.
My 4 kiddos drove in and waited for me at the Finish Line:
And I got a real pretty medal:
(As did everyone who crossed the finish line;)
Really;)
And remember when I said I thought people were insane to run 42km?
Well my first 42k is scheduled for May.
Second one is August.
Kind of funny how time changes your mind on a matter isn't it?

Way to go! You put me to shame on the days I run on the treadmill cuz its cold outside. It hasn't even snowed here yet!
Good going! I'm sure it was hard to run in the snow. PS Your kids are adorable ...
Wow, good for you and it sounds like it was fun!
How nice that your adorable kiddos met you at the finish line to celebrate your victory finish.
Your remarkable, Dawn
cheers :)
Just crossing the finish line would be goal enough for me...Great Job!!!

Girl, you rock so hard. I love it! I'm having a hard time taking my puppy for a walk in the cold and here you are running a half marathon in it! Hugs to you. :)

Yay for a 42K! I'm doing my first 50k in June...yikes!!
I've finally worked out why you're training so hard. You're going to become a modern-day Forrest Gump so you never have to get on a plane again:-)
Well done. Pretty medal!
Really cool medal Dawn. Congrats on a great race! Love the pic with your kids too. It's nice they come out to cheer you on even in the cold.
Great going!
Looks like you have a great family! Sounds cold to be running!
