Congrats, SK!!! Way to go!!!! A pint glass and some Skittles is an awesome prize!!! That's really great- happy for you!!

I did my first 50 miler on Saturday. Took me a little over 16 hours (there was MUCH walking after about hour 9 and only walking after hour 11). It was such a great experience. I'm not sore at all, which is surprising. The first day after I was stiff, but the only thing that bothers me now is the giant blister on the ball of my foot that is starting to heal. I have another marathon in less than 2 weeks, so I need that to heal up ASAP.

If you care to read about my race I have two blog entries about it at http://turtlepacing.blogspot.com/ The first post you see is my thoughts on the race, the post below is a photo-diary of the day with signs I had pre-made before the race. If you want to read about my experience read the first post, if you just want to see it in pictures, read the second.
