This was a good race for me. I ran the entire race and kept my heart rate within the parameters set by my cardiologist.

I actually could have pushed just a little harder.

Warm down:

Walked around with my family and waited for dh to finish the half marathon.

Heart disease and no thyroid. Both side effects of my three cancer episodes. Also continuing to fight PF although that was much better for this race.

great that you got out there, the PF can be a pain.   Fun to make it a family event.  Did your son pull a faster time than you?
