So I was only thinking that I could break it by a handful of seconds at a time. Yes, I'm still pumped about my result. Getting antsy to race again, though!

That is awesome that you knew during Mile 2 that you were going to be able to smash your goals - isn't that the most amazing feeling, ever??? I was very moved by the church bells tolling right as the race was underway, too. Thought it was a sign from the heavens for all of us. =)emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1804307342977220552.post-48341550687974871732016-04-25T15:43:16.388-07:002016-04-25T15:43:16.388-07:00Thanks Erin!
