Last Sunday, my 48 year old mother ran a full 26 mile marathon through New Orleans.
TWENTY SIX MILES, people!
That's a 26 minute drive if you're going 60 mph the entire way...
I can run about 4 without having to walk and then I'm toast.
She had been training for a long time for this and she didn't walk once. That's right. Ran the whole way.
I am in awe. IN. AWE.
This was something she had on her Bucket List! So now she can cross it off!!
I was extremely nervous about the whole endeavor but she prevailed! I am so, so incredibly proud of this woman and am honored to say I am her daughter.
I come from strong blood...WATCH OUT!
