Almost every half I do, I start to cry when I see the finish line (for some reason, I’m not nearly so emotional when I do 10ks) – and yeah, I SO have to focus on not choking up and allowing my breathing to get all out of whack.

I thought I was the only one who did this!

So, yeah, I get the tears thing. I’m competing in my first triathlon in August and I know I’ll be bawling like a big baby then. No big deal!

I will be thinking of you and all that you have given me with your blog when I finish my first 1/2 marathon this weekend in Choteau Monanta.
