Thank you everyone for wishing me a good run. The Marshal Mangler 25K WAS FANTASTIC!! I was hoping for sub 4 on this course but I swear my garmin said 16.7 miles so I would have come in at 4hours BUT WHO CARES!!! I dont, teehee!! I had a blast, the course was beautiful, the weather was perfect and the rain held off and it was not as muddy as I thought it would. My first 4 miles were rough and painful, my achilles was totally stiff and I was cramping but at the first aid station I lucked out and got a massage, lost more than 6 minutes there but felt good enough to run the next 4 miles no problem and finished STRONG. Races like this one is the reason I love running. I should stick to trail run!! BEAUTIFUL course, truly beautiful. Thank you Michael for being so encouraging and thank you David Dames for running the last half mile with me and making me look strong running to the finish line. Michelle thank you and Michael for all the work you do in putting this race together, very well marked, and GORGEOUS course and please thank Adam for me, he was volunteering at the Pigeon Shelter, if it wasnt for him I would have DFN I was in tears when I got to that aid station!! Definetely doing this again next year!!!! And to my coach, I took it easy I really did, anytime I felt like pushing it to either catch up or pass someone I held back and stayed at my pace. So glad I signed up for this at the last minute!!
