The Boston Marathon & A New PR
The Boston Marathon is 26.2 miles that truly tested my determination, pain threshold, and threw so many curve balls my direction that I had to remind myself, “It’s now what happens to you, but how you handle it.” But in the end, I survived with a smile on my face and a new PR!
Not my goal time, but I’m extremely happy with my new little BFF and am proud of every step it took to get there.
We’re still in Boston until tonight, so the longest race report of your life will be coming soon!
And most importantly, thank you SO much to each and every one of you who supported me through this entire process. You are all truly the reason I was able to get through it and I can’t believe what a wonderful community this is. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
A 5K PR & A Too Small Singlet
I’ll keep today sweet and simple. Thanks to all of your encouragement and support, the Dublin Shamrock 5K was a success in more ways than one: a new PR and a 2011 goal is now complete (placing overall)! It wasn’t as painful as I had expected and am now considering all 5Ks a Band-Aid race. You don’t really want to do it, but if you just breathe and yank it off – it will be over in a no time. Plus, you’ll realize it wasn’t all that bad.
Time: 19:17
Overall Female: 3rd
Age Group: 1st / 157
Overall: 37 / 1618
I wasn’t the only one who got to enjoy the festivities though. I scooped up free post-race pizza and sandwiches for Chicken Face – this is how I pay him for being my personal bag check!
And yes, that jersey is sucking my insides out. The new running club that I joined was nice enough to loan me a jersey when I got to the race – little did I know it would be about five sizes too small for me. They called it the “5K Corset” and I’m considering it my initiation.
Happy Running!
