Can't believe it's almost here!

I read these boards most days but hardly ever post. But I am getting so excited now!! My 14 year old daughter and I are doing this race together and going to spend 4 days on a mini vacation alone together. Since I have 4 kids, work and go to school this is a major luxury! Training has been a little iffy and I had only had a long run of 7 miles. Yesterday though my daughter and I went out for 12 miles. We walked some each mile but managed to do 12 pretty easily in just under 2 and a half hours. Definitely a confidence booster! Anyway, I am so looking forward to the race weekend! See you all there!

No matter what age, this is a great event to do with your daughter. My daughter and I started doing races together at the inaugural Princess Half. We wouldn't miss this race. My husband comes along so that we can race while he watches DD's two girls. It's a family thing!
