Finished!
Leisa on Oct 3rd 2004
The most exciting moment was at the beginning. Running down the bus mall with thousands of other people. Paul & I ran the first mile together. The start was kind of amazing and rush. We had been training for this since March and it was finally happening. The rest was pretty anti-climatic. As unlikely as it sounds, I felt good the entire for the whole race. I wore my heart-rate monitor and kept my heart rate within 5 beats per minute the entire time. I never hit the ‘wall’. The second toe on my right foot hurt a bit between mile 25.5 and 26 but that was it. Felt good enough afterwards to go out for dinner.
