I don't know where you are running or how did you train, but I trained on a treadmill and ran on the street which is totally different-no uphill running on the treadmill. I do want to do it again, but as a different goal (a LOT to say considering how much I HATE all this crap, and the pain I am in, but I am more competitive than I thought). My brother told me that had the race taken place on a flat area, I would've had NO problem running all of it - and in less time! Good luck with your race! I look forward to hearing how you did!Loving Wife, Working Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16695325961243848467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2137257590476441398.post-14219084973244851412010-02-22T22:38:58.743-05:002010-02-22T22:38:58.743-05:00CONGRATS!!!

That's a huge accomplishment, especially for someone who doesn't like exercise. <br /><br />{BTW, according to FASFA our family contribution to college should be $11,000. For one year! Now you know why I need a million more scholarships. Oy!}Brandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16775110752834313420noreply@blogger.com
