I will run this race again because Savannah is so awesome and while it may be a little less fun to get around logistically, not many cities can claim the beauty of the historic district in Savannah. I'm also used to disorder because that's how we do!! (in the south)
Love seeing your pictures! I'm still bummed that we weren't able to meet up in Savannah! My husband says that I need to frame my medal with my MRI report. Remember those shin splints I thought I had leading up to the race? Turns out it was a minor stress fracture. After hobbling my way to the finish line, straight to the medic tent for ice and then back to the B&B, I was unable to even stand on my leg - the minor stress fracture became a break 3/4 the way across my tibia. 3 weeks down and 10 more to go on crutches and in a brace BUT, I'm no longer disappointed in my race time - I ran it on a broken leg! Little consolation though since I won't be able to even think about running for 3 months and then another 3 months before I can race. :-( So, I'll continue to read about those who can. Good luck in Las Vegas!
ReplyDeleteDenise,
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you had a stress fracture!!! You definitely have to learn to listen to your body! But I'm so proud of you, that is awesome!! I hope we get to meet up someday soon!
