February 21 - 13.1 miles (26.2 With Donna 1/2 Marathon)

(mile 7 - 1st Street, Jacksonville Beach)
Great weather - cold, in the mid-40s for the start, and it warmed up to the mid-60s by the finish. I ran the first 5.5 miles tagging along with Kelly and Rachel, and we did 4:1 run/walk ratio. I split from them on the beach, and ran/walked the rest of the way. I enjoyed the 1/2 marathon but got a little choked up at the turnaround point, watching the others head off in the direction of 26.2 miles, which I did last February. The intracoastal bridge was tough at mile 11, but Lisa came and ran the final 1/2 mile of the race with me, which helped immensely.
