You still did all the training and you still finished another marathon (and 30 minutes faster than two years ago). Not every day can be a PB and the joy is in the journey.
Holy crap that is a big medal. I soooooo wish I could run like you even on (what you think) are your bad days. Congrats for another down! What a beauty day to run.
wow! i'm not sure if there is anything i wouldn't do for a medal like that!!!! i have serious medal envy over here! good work, and way to pull out such a great time on an off day!
Way to go Marlene! another Marathon under your belt! I had too many attempts like this, today I was 8 seconds shy from my PB :-) but I still had a good time.
Marlene, although this wasn't the outcome you wanted, you still kicked ass for 42.2. In the grand scheme of things, any opportunity to learn, grow and inspire folks has to be considered a win.
Marlene--A BIG congrats on earning that BIG bling! There are plenty of people who would love that time. Quinton posted some pics of you--you looked fantastic! Enjoy your accomplishment.
Marlene I am still very proud of you! You worked hard today. Some days are not our days but running a marathon is a HUGE deal! So congrats on running one today! :)
I had to take that medal off. It was hurting my neck! Great to see you on and after the course. We learn from every race and you will always get something from this past year's awesome training!
that is a massive medal! were you wearing all your medals during the race, that would definitely be reason so slow down :) congrats on a finish, sorry it wasn't exactly as hoped
That IS giant bling! And I would call at 4:11 marathon pretty awesome, even if it isn't a PR. Congrats on finishing--can't wait to read the race recap!
Mamma said there'd be days like this... Been couped up in a conference this week so I'm late on stuff...but I wanted to make sure I gave you an official congrats for your race on Sunday. You will have plenty of chances for a great day...but for this one...you stuck it out. And you looked great doing it. I couldn't help but post some of your pics on my blog (a few posts back). Hey...I may see you in Hamilton next month...I'm hoping to cheer on a few friends...
