Was a beautiful day today! A few degrees warmer and I wouldn't complained... started at 7am around 22f and ended around 30f. So pretty it was pretty darn cold!!
This is the first time I've had to stop and walk at the water stops for fear of slipping on the ice... pretty crazy! Had a really good time with this one. I felt really good the whole time and stayed pretty consistent other than some of the really long uphills, nothing too steep, just enough to slow you down. The road were pretty cracked up and a few holes to look out for. On the last mile it felt like someone stuck their foot out in front of me, apparently it was a raised crack in the road. I felt like my face was about a foot from the ground when I caught myself... I hope I didn't mess my knee up, it's a little sore. I'll keep some ice on it.
I really enjoyed this race and I look forward to the New Orleans half in a few weeks.
Thank you all for the support you have given me! It means a lot and has kept me motivated despite all I have going on.
Oh yeah... the medal is pretty sweet too!
