Weeeeee did it!!

I must say I am beyond proud of ALL of us!! I was really worried all day Friday after most of you ran and loved it that I wouldn't feel the same way. Every time I talked about it I would get cramps in my stomach... And my bum hahahaha! When my alarm went off I was like "ok! Here you go Ebbi!" (I'm all about self motivating lol) I don't know what was making me more nervous, the run or the fact it was going to be very very dark for about 30 min. And Candi or myself are fans of the dark on lonely long back woods roads. Lexi was nice enough to wake up and drive us out there so we didn't have to turn around when we were finished and go grab the car (I wish we could find someone to do that every time. It was key!). Once she dropped us off the lightening show really got started! I didn't want to think about it too much because there was really nothing we could do! I figured if it got bad enough in town that Lax would come back for us. Thank goodness it didn't. Before we knew it we were five miles in and we both felt GrEAt!! We didn't want to speed up or talk about how great we felt for fear we would jinx ourselves so we just kept onward! I was wearing my Frees instead of my Brooks and they felt good! Not sure which shoe I like better? We decided to walk for a little bit after mile 13 which really helped break up the last few miles. I felt like I could go more, but glad that I didn't have to haha.. I'll leave that for this sat when we are doing 18! I am so proud of us all I just can't stand it!

Since we didn't have to return and grab a car we decided to carry out first bag for about five miles... We felt like we were on the Biggest looser hahaha

I just have to add how stressed I was for these girls and Chad when I dropped them off! The lightning was unreal! As I was driving back it seemed even worse! I laid down by Carsyn and kept dozing in and out worrying that they needed me to come pick them up! In fact, I had dreams that they were calling me and I didn't answer! Haha. But they were champs and plugged through the scariness!
