Miles 16-19 were again under 10 min/miles! I couldn’t believe how great I was still feeling. We saw Jenn around mile 19.5 and I became an emotional wreck. I teared up and began to think about my entire journey to this point. I remembered sitting in her office and chatting with her about her first marathon and thinking, “Wow! If only I could be as strong as her.” And after 16 rough weeks of training I had made it and was running in my very first marathon.
Part of one of my former students/running minions Marine Corps Marathon recap! ::Tears::
