I lived, I lived, I lived!!! Miles 1-16 felt really good, I ran with another girl at a 9:30 pace without stopping. I hit mile 16 and it went downhill from there, I started a walk/run thing until the end. I felt like such a baby, about mile 24 I started to cry until I saw my sisters, then when I saw the finish line I almost cried from relief. I'm so happy I lived!!! I might actually do another one, but I can't think about that right now, I'm just glad it was under 6 hours!

Hey, great job! I did the same thing as you in 2007, but you finished way faster than me.

Under 6 hours? You were way under six hours. Way to go. You are now a part of an elite group of people. Those that can say that they have completed a marathon.

YOU LIVED and I bet you will do it again----just do not think about it for a while!!! Marathons are serious emotional business.

Nice job!!!
