I'm signed up to run the Mesquite marathon and on the facebook page had a link to fastcory.com. I checked him out he is pretty funny and then I started looking at the blogs he looks at. It was awesome to read about other mothers that run. I'm also slightly obsessed with running right now as the marathon is usually on my mind. Anyway I just wanted to say when I saw that you qualified I was so ecstatic and when I just read your recap I was in tears. I hope I have as good as an experience as you did. I'm not as fast as you but I too want to qualify for Boston. Looking at your times for your shorter distance races I get discouraged but after I did a 9 mile pace run at 8:18 last friday I felt a little better about it. You rock girl and should think about doing the Mesquite marathon on NOV. 19th. Starts in St. George and goes to Mesquite.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01807954208977784313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043717769175855198.post-11300235741619190902011-09-21T11:31:14.971-07:002011-09-21T11:31:14.971-07:00I just can't get over how excited I am for you...I just can't get over how excited I am for you after being injured to make your goal!

You definitely deserve a pack of Hostess donuts. <br /><br />I had the same exact dilemma after this race with my 26.2 time versus official time. I could have taken a few minutes off. But I came to the same conclusion - I should go with official time. (Google "run the tangents" - a good tip for not running too far extra. Obviously I haven't perfected this yet.)<br /><br />Way to go!!!

Foam roll, ice/heat, advil, and I usually run a few days after the marathon. (nothing crazy, just a few short, easy, slow miles to get some of the soreness out).ash & dizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14445501515825965107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3043717769175855198.post-36782853235953829762011-09-19T21:18:08.584-07:002011-09-19T21:18:08.584-07:00YOU ARE AMAZING AND SO INSPIRING!
