Comments: AH...what a glorious run!! Stone dusted us VERY quickly at the start...saw his little green hat bobbing WAY ahead!! go man go!! rob, arron and i slipped thru the crowd and fell into a very comfy pace and joked and laughed along the way. Arron was awesome with his garmin to keep the pace going. Wondeful to see Arrons family along the course!! kids and wife, all smile s and waving at dad!!! :) Rob kept me paced for the race, didnt allow me to flame out too early. My PB for the course was entirely due to his mentoring and pacing. What a great guy!!! Due to him, I was able to pull out the reserves at the end and kick up the pace. isis seemed to be around every corner with her pom poms, smiles, cheers and signs!!! THANK YOU!!!!!! What would you do differently?: NOT A THING!!!!!!!!!!! keep this one in the memory for a lifetime. Post race
Warm down: met up with my bud, bob, from track club and fellow bter kzchoc at the finish. jumped into the shower....ALONE!!!! ;) and then hopped out to find mark in the course. What a guy he is!! he looked GREAT!! at mile 24. he says he didnt feel good but he was evenly pacing and looked well. very glad to be able to be there for his first mary. hung out at BT base camp with crew, berniect, capt, jack, stone, kzchoc,and isis54 for a BREW!!!! and tall tales.

Had a WICKED awesome pre-race pasta dinner with Cappy jack and stone. SO many laughs!! (i think my finger nail marks are still on hOOters front door...;))
After leaving the capt and stone in the towering inferno, I ditched it home for a good snooze.
AM tried and true oat meal and juice. Check on 'ski' report from cappy...4 inches of fresh powder overnight and temps in the BALMY high teens with a REFRESHINGLY BRISK westerly wind!!!!
met up with the crew at base camp. Got a GREAT hug from nikki in the lobby. kept warm in the hotel while waiting for isis.
WARMUP!!!!! We all jogged to the start line and were INSTANTLY toasty warm with the BIG smile and signs and hugs from joanne!!! What an awesome cheerleader...not sure what we are going to do when she is back to racing again.
Oh,..how cool is it to be about 5 ft, from the racing legend Bill Rodgers at the start!! he is such a cool guy.
