What in the world was I thinking?!?!?!?!

Some of you know I had been training for a half marathon but was unable to run it because of an injured leg. Well, I ran into my ex sister in law at the homecoming parade (2 weeks ago) and she told me about a half marathon that was on the 1st of November and begged me to do it wth her. Me, being the brainless person I am agreed to do it. Remember, I haven't been training for about 3 months but said I would do it anyways. We decided we should run it last Saturday (1 week before) to try it out and know what to expect. We did really good until the last 2 miles when we started getting really tired but we finished and felt good about it, at least until the next morning when I tried getting out of bed. I felt every ache and pain possible, in places I didn't know existed. I think I might even lose my big toenail from it because I had a blister form underneath my nail. Now that I am almost fully recovered from pure stupidity I get to do it again in 2 days, the morning after Halloween which I'm hoping I still have a sugar high. Wish me luck and if you don't see any posts with results make sure to check the obituary for the date of my funeral. Plus, if you talk to Jeff, make sure to give him a hard time because he won't be there cheering me on because he thinks I'm NUTS (which maybe I am) or because he wants to save himself the embarassment of cheering his wife on an hour after everyone has crossed the finish line.
