Today I finished the Des Moines marathon barefoot!
After 2 days working at the expo I finished off with a 4:28:32 time and I enjoyed every step! I had fun even when it hurt and I kept moving and stepping lightly and gently. "Relax girl, you've got this" is what I told myself over and over and it worked!
Recap with videos to come. Thank you all for your encouragement. I thought about my bloggie friends so often.
Thank you Mel and Beth for the fuel tips. I never hit the wall and I believe it was due to my fueling strategy.
Happy running and congrats to all those that ran this weekend!!! I can't wait to read your recaps.
