I won my division in my first race...

Great Job! I'm glad you two showed up and represented.

You all are so kind! Even if the material awards were by default, I'm so tickled to have such cool momentos of my first race. And Aggie_Ama, you're right... I'm pretty proud of myself for kicking my own butt as much as I did! We weren't there for the "competition," per se, but to have finished 14 miles with an average speed of almost 17mph is a big personal achievement for me! I can't wait to do another timed event!

This has even me want to try running again... I have a leg-length discrepancy and I've not yet found a good compensation for it for running, which is another topic for another day. I think I just need to just bite the bullet and buy some new shoes and have a cobbler build me a lift for one. Anyway, maybe next time I'll be able to "do the du" solo.
