We all have dreams, in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline and effort. ~Jesse Owens
It was a chilly October morning for my second half marathon. I hadn't yet set the goal to run one in all 50 states, but I knew I wanted more of this type of course with its rolling hills and vivid Fall foliage. 247 runners finished the half marathon. I had a finishing time of 2:20, an average mile time of 10:40. A better time than the first event, though time isn't as much my goal as getting on the course and finishing and talking to a few runners along the way, maybe even making some new friends.
