  • Thanks everyone!!!  I'm checking my email real quick before we drive back up to Seattle.  I am sore sore sore!  It's was a great race: perfect weather, lots of people and support.  Hands down, Portland is my favorite marathon.  I did better than I had hoped, so I am happy with my time.  MH hopped in at mile 20 and ran the last 6.2 miles with me, which was awesome b/c I was getting really tired.  He wins DH of the year in our household.  Smile

    I believe Sujen (S&D2HI) ran the race, too.  Sujen - how did you do?

  • That is so sweet that your husband ran the last 6.2 with you! 

    Congratulations to Sujen as well!!!  You guys are amazing! 

  • Wow! That is a hige accomplishment. Congrats. And way to go hubby for the support.
  • Amazing is right, way to go girls, we nesties are so proud of you! Big Smile

  • You ladies rock! Congrats!
  • Yaaaaay! That's so amazing! Party!!!
  • So sad!

    Started out beautifully! Was going at a comfortable pace, ~11:50 min/mi, and felt good! Around mile 9, i started to get this cramp in my left leg. I tried to "shake" it off and keep going but my leg was sooo tense...i kept stopping to stretch it and would try to continue slowly. I finally trudged to mile 16 before telling myself that it wasn't really worth hurting myself in the long run. So I decided to call it quits.

    I am still SUPER disappointed in myself =T And keep thinking back to all the things that I shouda/couda/wouda. Hubby ran the race and did great! 4:45 for his first marathon. This was my second, well, i guess its really 1.5?

    Still really frustrated about training the last 6 months and not even being able to complete the show. Poopers. Oh well, maybe next time?

    Good job Kristianna! Way to rock it ;D

  • Congrats to both of you! Annasan, awesome job. Sujen, just getting out there is commendable! Especially knowing when to stop, that takes bravery.

    All I can say is that I walked 3 miles today and am SO TIRED! SO..... Way to go both of you!

  • Congrats both of you!!  That's awesome!  And Sujen, I think you should totally feel proud of yourself for what you did accomplish!  Cramps are the worst - it was always my worst fear, because when I cramp up during training, it basically means the end of that workout.  There are lots of runners on the H&F board - maybe you can ask how to avoid cramps?  I have no idea other than eat a banana or something like that beforehand.

    You guys are rockstars.  I don't think I could ever run that much!

  • congrats to both of you ladies!
