As a fellow working mom, I know just what an accomplishment that is! You really provide Sophie with one hell of a great mommy example.

Bummer!...I'm so sorry that you had a tough day. Bummer! Feeling like puking does not sound like a fun way to run 26.2 miles, but good for you sticking it out and making it across the finish line. I decided a while ago that, if I'm going to run a lot of races, I can't expect for them all to be stellar. I just don't think the body works like that. Congrats on your three marathons and a lot of other races, too. Hope your next one is fantastic!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09850402946096255139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086401509875608602.post-38214576222286467632011-10-28T22:35:27.972-05:002011-10-28T22:35:27.972-05:00Bummer that you had a tough race, especially becau...Bummer that you had a tough race, especially because it was such a beautiful day!

Congratulations on doing 3 marathons for 2011...that's awesome. <br />I just found out that 2012's GB marathon won't have the final lap running through Lambeau. They've got stadium construction going on adding extra seats...bummed big time over this announcement, even though it's only for this coming year's event.Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677754284276322596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086401509875608602.post-23493735131459175672011-10-26T05:53:49.691-05:002011-10-26T05:53:49.691-05:00Oh no, so sorry you had such a rough time.

Many people would have just quit, but you finished it!

(Easy enough to say when registration doesn't open until Febrary.) Congratulations on sticking with it and finishing despite your hardships!Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01325119755927336119noreply@blogger.com
