Comments:

My first half marathon!!! So proud that I actually cried. It was wonderful and I can't wait for the next one.
What would you do differently?:

Not a thing. For my first race, my goal was to not walk. I did that, so I'm happy. I'll get faster. Oh yeah, not wear cotton socks! Blisterville.

Could have used more water - it was hot! Lots of people puking and fainting.
