The Race

Crown Center is where the race started & ended. I finished 13.1 miles in one hour and 56 minutes. This was my best half-marathon time yet! I was very proud.

I'll post a picture of me after the race in my next post.

2 days!

Two days until I run the Kansas City Half Marathon. I think I am more ready this time than I ever have been. On Monday I ran nine miles preparing for the race, and today I ran six. Thursday & Friday will be my days off until the big morning! Now, I need to overload on carbs! Pasta, bread, & water!!

I added a couple gadgets to my blog. As you can see they are on the right hand side. I thought a stress relief tip of the day would go well with my blog topics. I definitely have relieved some major stress in the past couple days. 

Results from the race to come soon! :)

Athletes Run

Last year for one of my advertising classes I came up with a marketing campaign for Under Armour and how they could reach out to a more specific audience in a better way. Recently, they came out with a new line for women, featuring running shorts/shirts/jackets in colors like pink and purple. How perfect. This is one of the advertisements I used for my project. Targeting women is very important...we make up over 80% of the buying power in America!
