The Marathon!

Well, today I started and finished my first marathon. It was rough, but I completed it. I was aiming to not walk and make it in 4 hours. While I did walk about a mile (part of which were for the drink stations) and stop to help a girl that fell down about three quarters of a mile before the finish, I still managed to complete the marathon in under 4 hours (a finishing time of 3:57:49). I am proud of myself because it was a tough course. There is a killer hill that runs from mile 6.5 to mile 7.7. The only thing that got me up the hill was that I saw Kaylee up at that top! I stopped and gave her a kiss...and it made it all better! ;-) I finished 15th for the women (out of 103) and I am proud of that! Mike and I kicked butt! :-)
