This year I really wanted to run the Frederick Running Festival, but I didn't want to run the Half Marathon. There were some Run, Mama, Run ladies doing their 1st Half that I wanted to support, so I asked Crystal if she would run the Team Relay with me instead. This way it was just a fun run for both of us, and we could cheer on our running friends as well!! And since the race was on Cinco De Mayo, Team Margarita Mama it is :)
When I run these days, I always have 2 precious angels on my mind! This year I ran for Sophie and Madigan, and for Boston.

I ran the first leg of the Team Relay, which is 7.9 (just call it 8 miles)! Once I started running through downtown Frederick, I really felt light on my feet and energetic. It was the fastest I've ever run 8 miles. 1 hour and 15 minutes was when I hit the relay point!. From there, Crystal took on the last 5.2 miles!

Crystal flew for the last 5.2 miles and we ended up with a sub-2 hour Half Marathon! Awesome! Our official time was 1:57:19. 38th out of 104 Team Relay groups! I would definitely run the relay again! It was a no pressure, just for fun, race!!
