Ok! My half was Saturday!    It started out sunny and so warm 45 degrees but as we drove the 20 minutes into the town the race was in and a thick fog layer picked up which dropped the temp by 10+ degrees and me in my tank...

So so good! I will certainly post a race report when I'm done on Saturday.   I just bought the Gabrialla support belt (medium support) size medium and had my first test run using it today. I was pretty happy with it, though I...

  I'm 19.5 weeks along today. And in these pictures, my husband is giving my a hard time about not looking pregnant and looking more like I ate a big burrito. I feel pregnant, oh well, it will show eventually.
