Boston Marathon
Here I am with my running partners at the finish line, pre-race!
DaNel, Kristi, Me and Lori - My running sisters!
Being able to run the Boston Marathon was a dream come true! Something I have always wanted to do and it definitely lived up to the hype! It was what I imagined and so much more! The process of taking it to the next level to reach this goal was so worth it! Because I had to run the race slow due to an injury, I didn't feel any of the normal marathon anxieties. I was able to just enjoy the thousands of people calling my name and cheering the entire 26.2 miles! I took in the full Boston experience which included the womens olympic trials the day before! It was an amazing experience I am so grateful I was able to have and especially to share with Lou. This will be a trip we will always remember.
Yes, and all the more sweet that I didn't qualify overnight:)
