It's January?!?!

Today was the Gulf Coast Half Marathon in Gulf Shores (#13!!!!!).  Second Half Marathon in January of this year, Second Half Marathon with crappy, unseasonable weather.  :(  It was actually warmer than First Light two weeks ago, but I think the only thing that saved us was the sun did not come out to bake us.  However, it was terribly foggy and we could only see a few blocks ahead of us.  So weird.

Aside from the unfortunate weather, the race was great!  The Gulf Coast people always put on a great race.  The post race party was at Lulu's and was a lot of fun.  Rollin' in the Hay was there.  We got a free pair of socks.  The good thing about running small races (only 330 finishers) is that it is much easier to place!  2nd in my age group!  Woop woop!  Heather also got 2nd in her age group!

I can't believe there are only 3 weeks until Mercedes Marathon!!!  I also can't believe this ridiculously hot weather in January.  The only thing that stresses me out more than running a marathon is running a marathon in high temps & humidity.  Yikes!!
