Hey kat,
A local friend of mine did the 26.2. He runs five to seven marathons every month, has done a number of 50Ks including some very tough trail races, and at least one 50-miler. He said flatly that this year's Pike's Peak was his toughest run ever.
So, BE PROUD of yourself!
ETA: nice job you too jess! I missed that you were doing it. I'm in awe of you mountain goats.
