All About Carrie

I walked a half marathon last weekend. Just something I had wanted to do in the year 2006 and I made it in under 4 hours. It was quite an experience as there was horrible traffic in Long Beach at 7 am on Sunday morning. We walked across the start line 15 minutes late. Luckily they have timing chips that start the clock when you go across the start line, across the 10K and at the finish. We actually ended up walking the 2nd half faster that the fist. It was A LOT of fun. There was a mile or two when I wasn't sure if my partner in crime was going to finish with me, but after mile 10 we really picked up the pace and thanks to a timely banana we rocked the finish line! I hope to have pics soon.
