I ran my first full marathon this morning at the Long Beach Marathon. I went out kinda hard because I was worried my legs would peter out in the end. Which my legs did, after mile 21, my goal was just to finish. My legs and feet hurt so bad, I can barely walk right now. But it was all worth it...I feel so accomplished!
I placed first in my division, females 20-24. 36th female overall and 264th with both males and females. My finish time was 3:33:23 (8:09 pace). I qualified for Boston Marathon! There were about 3000 runners in the marathon. | | Comments(12) |

| Took my dog for short walk this morning and taught a 60 minute yoga class. My IT bands are extremely tight/sore. If anyone reads this and has some tips on marathon recovery, I'd appreciate any insight as Sunday was my first marathon. | | Comments(5) |

Mandatory rest day because of all my graduate classes are Thursday and fridays mornings.
The pictures from my marathon are done from during the race, I look like I was about to die... I didn't feel like I was going to until the end. And lots of the pictures were taken close to the finish line. I'll try post one on here later.
