Comments: With all of my problems through this race, it was still a good race. I made it through the finish line and pushed myself as hard as I could. I didn't spend the morning sitting on the couch watching television and continued on my journey to be healthy and fit. That's what it is all about for me, and I need to remember that when I get frustrated for not performing better. I've made huge improvement from last year, and I just can't ask for more. I'm giving as much as I can and pushing myself as hard as I can. It frustrates me that I train as much as I do and I'm not faster, but I'm making steps in the right direction, and I've got to keep plugging along and not expecting everything at once. I spent 40 years abusing my body, and now expect it to do things its never done before. It's going to take some time.
