my portland marathon race

Ok, so i wanted this to be my race this year. Yes, i got a bit obsessive with my training no need to ask my family and friends i will just right out admit it.
The weather was just the way i liked it. I had my iPod, shot blocks, and my garmin and i was ready to go. My goal was 4:45, last year official time was 4:59, and my spring marathon (May) was 4:54. I was determined. голова болит секс голова болит секс
Somehow, i started with the 4:45 pacer, but kinda looking for my husband when we started, i could not see the pacer anymore. I found out around mile 9, he was behind me………oops.
Well, i came across the finish line at… are you ready……4:43! YEAH!
I was super super HAPPY.
During the race, i did feel pretty good, until about mile 22, the last 4 miles my quads were on fire, i just had to keep going, it would hurt more to stop then to keep going (well that is what my mind was saying at the time).
A bit of rest, then back to training. I had already signed up for the Rock n Roll Arizona for Jan 2010. I think at mile 24, i was wondering why i signed up for Arizona, but now, i am okay with it!
