i totally have tears right now. like taisha said, this was the most intense thing i have ever put my body through! we did it, we reached our goals, and we don't feel the need to ever do it again! haha.
remember when i said, "we are ready." bwah hahahaha. i was cry-laughing on the second uphill hike, {the 2-mile one} i thought about when we were all excited that we went up cascade hill 2 times in a row. nothing could have prepared us for this race! (although the training we did did give us more endurance than had we not trained.) i literally had some inner battles that i had to deal with during it. it was an incredible feeling to finish and to have alayna and her sister at the end cheering for me! it was sooooo awesome! and, i am posting more pics when i get them from the race and from alayna. yep, you are going to have to read about this for awhile!!
ashley and taisha: my racing team! you are unbelievable women and i am so grateful for your support and encouragement. i could not have done this without you! i {heart} you!!! :)
check this one off the list!!
