Pretty sure anyone who reads this blog knows that I totally finished the run today. 🙂 My pace was WAY slower than I’d anticipated and I definitely walked the final 9 miles…but who cares?! I have a medal and got to wear those weird aluminum foil-looking jackets for a few minutes before I overheated and threw it away. 🙂

Will write a full recap tomorrow – right now I’m just a bit too dazed!

Just remind me if I EVER wax nostalgic on this day and start talking about another marathon…NEVER AGAIN. Once was more than enough for this girl’s lifetime!*

*unless I sort out my nutrition issues and come to a full recovery with my tendinitis and don’t hurt myself somewhere new and work enough on improving my running that I truly think a second go-around would have a dramatically improved outcome…
