Week 20 - Day 6: I DID IT!!!!

I completed the Country Music Marathon in 4:17:17!!!! I have been completely swamped with work since returning home Saturday afternoon, so I'll post all the details later. But to make a long story short - I felt GREAT up until about mile 21. I wasn't able to choke down any more of the Sports Beans at that point, and I started feeling pretty fatigued. But I kept moving and kept focused...I kept telling myself that I may not ever get an opportunity to do this again. And at Mile 25 I saw Holly, J.T. and Briar...Briar jumped in and ran the last mile with me - encouraging me the entire way...and I was able to finish strong. It was a great experience. Details and pictures to come...
