I was just about to get on here and post about how I really have nothing to say for today.... but then I checked my email and found a link to the professional race photos! Yay!
Here is one of my start corral, you can't see me, but this was my pack.
The next race photo was around 5.5 when I ran thru the castle in the Magic Kingdom! Yay!
Here's one that shows what 11-ish of the 13 miles were, highway like roads, pretty flat and wide. You can see some of the sets set up along the road, this was just past the Pirates of the Caribbean set.
The next is in Epcot, this was just before mile 13. I was so exhausted at this point, and wondering where the heck the finish line was, but also trying to soak in every last second of the race!
And finally, the finish! Words can't express the range of emotions at this point.
I think it's all sunk in, and I'm proud of myself, but also ready to move on. I'm excited for the 15k this weekend (or at least I'm telling myself I am), and then I'm ready to get to -100 lbs. That is the next thing on my list, so I'm ready to tackle it with the excitement and commitment I put towards training for these races.
Tonight I talked JJ into rolling my legs for me, my calves were so tight. Tomorrow Lou and I are running the bridges after work. Friday I work a half day! I'm very excited for that :)
You look so happy in every one of those photos - you rock, girl!! I am so incredibly impressed!
