I'm running the Inaugural NWM Half DC!

I still can't believe it!!

Last night I was looking through pictures on instragm, as usual, and I saw that one of my friends posted that she received her email saying she wasn't accepted into the NWM Half DC (for those that don't know, to run the race you have to apply because it's a lottery system). I applied the first day that the registration opened and then just kinda "forgot" about the race lottery. I figured, if I got in GREAT, if not I know of another great all women's half marathon (Iron Girl Half Marathon) the same day that didn't have a lottery that I could register to run.

So, off to my email I went to check and see if I got an email from Nike. To my surprise my second email subject line read: Confirmation XXXXXXX - NWM Half DC Random Draw Results! I didn't even have to open the email to know that I was accepted! I was so happy to open the email and see the following image.

So, did anyone else get in? Do I know anyone else running? I'd love to have some people to train with (run behind). I usually run my half marathons with my husband, so this will be a new experience for me, one that I will of course be blogging all about!

Thanks, Nike! I can't wait to get that pretty Tiffany necklace when I cross the finish line!
