For my 6th half marathon I returned to Fort Worth, TX for The Cowtown! This is where J and I ran our first marathon. That day was brutal, but also amazing! The hills kicked our tail. I have to say the half was no different!
I had to hit the expo after work that Friday before. I barely made it in time! So we made a quick sweep through the expo, picked up some gu for race day then headed to eat some awesome steak in Fort Worth. I'm sorry but Texas and Fort Worth know how to do steak!

I went into this race with no time goal. I just wanted to run with L and have a great time! This was her 2nd half marathon. Neither of us really had a time goal. We knew Cowtown was a tough course, and we just wanted to cross the finish line and own those spurs!
To give you an idea of the hills we faced....This is the hill we climb on mile 9. The Main St. bridge....It's actually nearly an entire mile long. Just when you think you've reached the top, you take a right turn and continue to climb! We took it like a champ!






Oh and I can't forget the after meal! I stopped in uptown and ate a Mexican buffet with endless mimosas! The food was some of the best I've eaten! Absolutely amazing! Stuffed my face and enjoyed every single minute of it!
