Living in a small town, my options for running events are very limited...which means if I want to participate in more than just the little 5K or 10K races here, I have to travel. And this weekend I did travel to my favorite half marathon race...the Hillsboro Half Marathon. I ran my very first half 3 years ago at the Hillsboro Half and always said I would go back. Well, between being pregnant with my youngest and getting back in shape, I didn't make it back until this year, but it was worth the wait. The course isn't too tough and the scenery is beautiful. I was hoping to finish in 2 hours, but didn't quite make it...2:10:26. I'm motivated to push harder in training and shave those extra 10 minutes off my time for next year!
I got the latest Photopolymer stamp set with my last order and it pairs up so well with I Am Me DSP...kind of reminds me of the Sent with Love DSP, which I was so sad to see go. I visited Fab Friday for a little sketch inspiration...
and came up with this...

Paper ~ Basic Gray, Whisper White, So Saffron, I Am ME DSP
