Failed Fit: I blew up...

Well, I guess the hills were too much for this flat lander. Or maybe it was the sun and 70 degree temps...But I think it was the hills, as my quads are on fire now.

Flying Pig is a really nice marathon- well-organized, GREAT crowd support, and a beautiful course....but a hilly one. Kelly left me behind (I asked her to) at mile 12-ish I think.

Unfortunately, I positive split this thing like no one's business (ran the second half WAAY slower than the first half). Ugh.

Yes, I'm very disappointed with myself. Yes, I cried a bit on Dustin's shoulder after I saw him at the finish. But I have no one to blame but myself.

Guess I train harder next time...

Two good things? No chafing at all (even from my sports bra, which is kind of the norm usually) and no bathroom stops (always a win).

Hell, I finished marathon #16. I guess I can be proud of that. Checked Ohio off the list.

Finish time...4:11:46

Ugh. I know, get over it. its not that bad...but its not what I trained for.
