2013 Races

With today being the LAST DAY OF THE YEAR, I thought I would reflect back over my past year. 2013 was QUITE the year for races. This was my first full year as a ‘runner’. I wanted to do 13 races in 2013 and I am HAPPY to report that I kicked that goal’s booty - I did EIGHTEEN RACES this year!

Below are the races that I ran this past year (along with a link to the recap and a picture or two from the event).


[My first sub-2 hour half marathon]

WDW Royal Family 5K [February 23, 2013]

[My mom’s first race ever]

Shoot, does that mean I shoot for AT LEAST 14 races for 2014?! Well, I already have 4 on the calendar between January 1st and March 23rd (one 10-miler, two half marathons and one 5K), so I guess I am well on my way. Upwards and onwards to next year!
