NYC Marathon - 11/4

Well our board has been quite. I wanted to share my exciting news. I have been planning for the NYC Marathon for a long time, Yesterday I did the 20 mile training run for the marathon. I can't believe I did it - I am so excited. I was very fortunate to be running with a woman from my training program. She is a much stronger runner than me, and she really kept me moving along. I finished the 20 miles in 3:40:50, not counting breaks for bathroom and water breaks. I was expecting to be sore today, but I have to say I am pleasantly surprised. I am really not sore at all. I did stretch and roll (on the foam roller) plenty yesterday and I think it really made a difference. I am so happy to have this run behind me; the hardest part of the training is now done. It was great to run the 20 miles , and definitely a confidence builder for the marathon. I can't wait until marathon day! This is a whole different world for me than it was 3 years ago before I had this surgery. It has been an amazing journey!

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!
