We can't stop thinking about the Niagara Women's Half Marathon! What a blast!!
We will be recommending this race to every friend, sister, mom, colleague, and anyone else who will listen; for a very long time.There were bands, buff boys, a lot of encouragement, and of course....The Falls.
This was definitely a "fun run" for us; with no goal except to stop and take a #selfie at least once per kilometer. We had a lot of fun, and even ran the last kilometer or so in our sock feet. Taking the time to step back from "racing" every half marathon has allowed us to fall in love with running all over again. We would recommend it to anyone.
The only thing that we would change about our day would be Kaitlin's choice of footwear. Although she ran a few of her longer training runs in her new Mizuno's, she hadn't broken them in. This proved to be painful throughout the entire race. Although it might be tempting to wear new shoes/pants/shorts/underwear/shirts etc. on race day; don't do it! Just don't!
Until next time!
Kaitlin & Melissa
