On Saturday I watched the Virginia Beach Half Marathon. It was cool to see those runners make the turn off the streets onto the boardwalk. That was the same place I ran when we took our family vacation. When the race was over, I was inspired to go for a run. It turned out to be a very fulfilling run because I was able to break a barrier I was wondering if I'd ever surpass, a 4-mile run in under 30 minutes. I was very glad to look at my watch to see 29:41! My closest run at the mark before Saturday was 31:08. The best part of reaching this goal is that the final mile was run the fastest at 6:57. I guess watching a good race motivates me pretty well.
