29:25!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you can't tell, I'm a touch excited. I have worked so hard for this, and now, finally at the end of my season I get it! It's pretty much exactly like I imagined it would be like. When I crossed the finish line and the guy with the timer said my time, I stopped in my tracks, turned around and looked at him and i was like "really?!?!" he seemed kinda confused. after that I couldn't stop crying from joy for like 5 minutes! it's a bizarre feeling, but definatly a good one. I love my super supportive team who all helped celebrate with me. I was afraid during my race when I hit the giant hill, because I fell behind Sally and some Desert Hills girl, and I was afraid it was going to shoot my time, and then as I was nearing the end I had some serious side pains in a space of the race where there were no people, I deeply considered walking, which I'd never done before, but then Manu showed up and he helped remind me I just had to push through it, and dig deep. if it weren't for my extreme joy of breaking 30, when my truck ran out of gas on the way home, I would have been put it quite a sour mood!
