Stoked on my first half marathon!

I was really afraid I started out too fast but I was just so psyched. I was planning on running the first 9 miles at a pace I knew I could sustain since I hugely feared the crash and burn, but I just kept running faster. I then let her rip for the last 4 miles with the last mile being my fastest - a 7:14 oh my! Which is completely insane considering I've never run a mile that fast in my life. I pretty much felt awesome - no complaints except for the whole trying not to crap myself between mile 2 and 6 thing.
