My time was 1:34:55 and my pace was 7:11. A crazy thing happened when I was running, I fell. When I was about mile 11 I ran too close to the edge and fell and I fell hard. My calf and my muscle around my hip are bruised and I am hurting. The neat thing is when I fell I should have hit my head against the ground and should have hit it hard, but Thank the LORD I did not. I have to say it was a miracle from God. But when I fell I rolled one time and was able to get right back on my feet and keep running. When I got up from the fall my right calf felt like my muscle tighten up like a base ball and as I keep running the Lord took away the pain and let me finish the race. So now next week I need to go to the chiropractor and figure out what damage I need to get fixed. So what a day and thank you all for the comments.
