6:00 p.m. 5/23 The night before the race- Renae, Jared, Steph, and I went to pick up our race day packets.
6:20 a.m. I am looking Cool, Confident, and Collected... In all honesty, I was shaking in my pants.... Waiting on the bathroom line.
6:30 a.m. Feeling nervous about being at this very same spot in 4 1/2 hours!!!! Only probably not looking quite as spiffy :)
6:58 a.m. The gun is about to fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
7:00 a.m. And, They're OFF!!!
The Incredible Fan Club.... Having so much fun!!!!
Lucy and Aunt Mindie
Mile 10 - Still looking strong

The fan club decided to go out for breakfast while I had run 10 miles.... Thankfully they got there just in time to see me run by-I gave a very dorky wave
(Not at all what I had practiced Steph :)
Reilly calls Mom at Mile 23.... MUCH needed encouragement at this point....
LOVE YOU MAMA!!!!!!!!!
