Las Vegas Marathon!


This past weekend was the Vegas Marathon. I was suppose to do the 1/2 marathon but was unable due to me fracturing my foot 2.5 weeks ago--so I was just a spectator, not nearly as fun as I had planned but still a fun weekend. My workout was trying to walk from the hotel to the race in my boot--which is the most walking I've done in a while. Scott did his marathon in 3:58. His goal was to do under 4 hours without pushing himself or letting his legs hurt-goal completed. I know if I were to do a full marathon I would definitely have to push myself & my legs would kill!
Here's a photo of us after the race. Yep were standing in the middle of the strip--they closed traffic off. We were making fun of these 1/2 marathon people who still weren't completed 4 hours later...I was walking faster than them & I am injured! It was pretty cold to watch the race, but perfect temp to run (I was a little bitter & VERY jealous of all the racers). I knew I enjoyed jogging but now that I can't exercise at all--I really do crave it. But I guess I now have an excuse for gaining all this holiday weight--its the lack of exercise...NOT the treats :).
