Celebrating My Half Marathon With Running Gadget @DCMobility #ATTRun
Yay! I am so happy!! I can't wait to use the gadgets and let you know about them. Thanks for…
On Sunday, my daughter and I will be running the Virginia Beach Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon. It will be my second and Sami’s (15 yrs old) first. To celebrate, AT&T in DC, @DCMobility, is offering my readers a running (or any sport) gadget giveaway. (This is a sponsored post.)
We have stuck with our training and we are ready. Last Sunday, we ran 11 miles which was the longest we’ll run until the race. We made it. Our goal is to finish. We’d love to finish under 3 hours, but if we finish, we’ll be happy.
Training for Half Marathon in DC
In June, we ran 5 miles in downtown DC. We stopped along the way to take photos at a few famous spots.
Since this post is sponsored by AT&T’s @DCMobility, I thought it was perfect to share our DC running photos.
And last, but not least, with the Washington Memorial behind us.
We started training earlier in the year and ran a 5k in February when it was bitter cold.
So now we’ll be running our 13.1 miles in the heat. I ran the same half marathon 3 years ago and I love it because you finish on the beach.
I’m so proud of my daughter. She set a goal and is about to achieve it. What are your running goals? The running gadgets in this giveaway will help you meet your running (or fitness) goals.

I would love to run a 5k, eventually 😉
Congrats on your Half today!!!!! 🙂
My running goal is to get back into the shape I was 20 years ago when I could really run.
I do not currently have a running goal. My goal is to increase my walking, I have just passed the 6 1/2 mile mark want to and.make it to 10 miles a day.
Hopefully in time I will be able to run.
I want to complete a 5K and hopefully in less than 33 minutes.
a half marathon by the end of this year!
My current goal is to move from 5k races to a 10k or half marathon.
Awesome!!! Thanks for sharing this awesome giveaway!!!
I just started running again about 6 weeks ago after a two year hiatus because of illness and surgery. I am running in the Color Run in St. Louis in two and half weeks and then a Race to the Cure 5k in October. My goal for next year is to run the Rock-n-Roll half marathon in St. Louis!
I’m looking to start running- I’m a total newbie!
My current running goal is to just be able to run lol. I just had a baby a ear ago and it’s not coming off as fast as I want it to…I am power walking and sometimes I jog but I want to start jogging and running all the time… I’ve been wanting a fitbit for about a month now bc I think it would really help me see what I’m doing! Thanks!
I’m running 2 marathons this fall, a week apart. Hoping for a quick recovery after the first. I am also trying to get my kids back into running after a summer of baseball.
my current running goal is to do a 5K without any walking!
I don’t actually run because it hurts my knees, but I’ve been exercising on an elliptical machine. My goal on the elliptical is to hit 4 miles in 45 minutes. Right now I’m at 3.5miles in that timeframe.
My husband is a marathon runner and happy to say he is my trainer. I just started last month. My goal is three miles. However, I am struggling in this summer Texas heat. 😉
Congrats on winning! Good Luck with your goal of 3 miles. The heat is a killer. It was so humid during our half marathon, so it was tough. I prefer running in the Fall!
Yay! I am so happy!! I can’t wait to use the gadgets and let you know about them. Thanks for hosting an awesome giveaway. And I love your blog!
I would love to run a 5K!
My husband has me training for a half marathon
I am running a triathlon (just a sprint tri) in December so getting comfortable running a 5k after a swim and bike is my goal!
I’m running a Half in Nov – hopefully! Thanks for the chance!
My current running goal is to just be able to run a mile. 🙂
I’m just starting so my goal is to do a mile without stopping once.
My Goal Is To Get Into Shape So I Can Eventually Enjoy Running.
I just signed up for my first 5K, so my personal running goal is to jog it without stopping! The last time I ran (more than a few blocks or so trying to catch the bus) was in high school. I am now 27, so it’s been a while!
