Callaway Gardens Half Marathon, Race Recap
I have to start this post with a photo of my favorite spectators. After dropping me off at the start line, they were able to grab breakfast and then wait in the warm car before coming out to cheer me in for the finish. I was so happy to hear their voices. (It did hurt a little ...

Okaloosa Island… In pictures
