(no subject)
One of the things I promised to do this year was run a marathon. I kind of applied that to mean a generic term for distance run(although I'm not ruling out a full one-although they're all pretty much in the spring). Today, I completed a half marathon. And I'm in PAIN.
I was starting to wonder if I was really up for this. At the third mile I was starting to walk for certain legs. At around the 10 mile mark, something really hurt on the arch of my foot and I could only run the last 3 in spurts. But I did still cross the finish line (at about 2:45-I was hoping for 2:30). I'm feeling gimpy in my foot, but great overall.
On the home front, I've been working with a lender and got approved for a much higher loan than I put in my range. It moved kind of fast, as I certainly don't have the money for a down payment handy. In a couple of months, however, that will change and I can move on to the searching for a house portion. Hard to believe I'll really be in my own house by year's end.
So...now what?
