Not Marine Material

Besides the fact I would probably run up to the enemy and ask if we could try to "hug it out". Or that I would call the uniform and outfit and ask if it came in a softer color. I broke the cardinal rule. YOU NEVER LEAVE A MAN BEHIND!! I did that. It wasn't even a battle with bullets flying....just a run. And I left my friend at the bottom of a hill and just kept running!!! Alison Fiori, I'm so sorry!! We started that race together and we should have finished it together!

My First Half Marathon

I don't care what ANYONE says...it was HARD!!! They designed the course with major hills the last five miles. So mean. My knees were burning but I RAN the entire race! In the video, I said my goal was 2 hours 45 mins, ended up with a finishing time of 2 hours 18 mins and 10 seconds! Woo hoo!!! Next year...full Marathon!
