Find Your Inner Rock Star
I want to give recognition to an amazing accomplishment of my friend Angie! This past Sunday we participated in the San Jose Rock n' Roll Half Marathon together. I have done a few half marathons in the past but this was Angie's very first half marathon. In fact, this was only her second running race EVER. She was awesome!! She pushed herself beyond our goal and showed incredible mental toughness to push through some discomfort toward the end to complete the race in 2 hours 38 minutes and 38 seconds!! This averages out to about 12 minute miles!! For someone who never considered themselves a runner and really only started working toward this goal a little over a month ago, that is so amazing! WHAT A ROCK STAR!! Above all things, we had so much fun! This was by far the most fun I have ever had doing a half marathon and I think the reason is because I got to complete with a friend next to me! If you have a goal like this, share it with someone and put your minds to accomplishing it together! Today's song, "Right Now" by Van Halen always pumped me up and inspired me before each of my college soccer games. I hope it pumps you up to go out and get whatever goal you are going for! God Bless:-)
