Half way there!

Today I ran my second half marathon- the Bronx half.  The course was a lot hillier than I'd expected, but luckily the weather was cooperating and stayed cloudy all morning.  The humidity was quite a shock having just returned from the dry heat of Colorado, but at least it was a lot easier to breathe in the Bronx than in the mountains!  I'm pretty sore now.  Here's a look at my run and a photo of my mentor Jessie, my teammate Megan and I after the 13.1 miles!



I also missed out on posting my Chicago long run.  Luckily for Paul, I was able to do last weekends 11 miler with the Illinois chapter of TNT, so he didn't have to keep me company!  It was a beautiful run along the lakefront, and a nice break from the hills of Central Park.  I enjoyed my post-run ice bath in the form of lake Michigan- it's that cold!  Here's my Chicago run:
