When I started my blog back in January I named it Tripods and Treadmills with the intention of not only posting about my business but also about my training for a 1/2 marathon. Along the way I have only made a few posts about running just because as usual, time was a factor! Well , on May 18th my friend and running partner Arleen and I completed our first official 1/2 marathon in Red Deer!!! It ended up being perfect weather, warm but not too hot and overcast, it even rained a few drops which was refreshing. We certainly didn't break any speed records but for us it was a great accomplishment and finishing was winning!
