I know those extra few seconds over 3:35 succckkkkkk but just think how the next marathon you run you will CRUSH that BQ time (and make sure you get in with their new weird rules where faster is more likely to get you in). Do you have another marathon planned before Boston sign-up time?!Ricole Runshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14848598538812208993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099670252831293133.post-46147070482271336402012-05-02T06:44:56.944-07:002012-05-02T06:44:56.944-07:00I somehow missed this post earlier - congratulatio...I somehow missed this post earlier - congratulations on a fantastic race and time!

Just wanted to say congrats on your awesome marathon! Your blog helped inspire me to do my first half last year...and I just signed up for a full yesterday.

No doubt you've got that BQ in there (I had no idea they didn't allow the extra :59! Sheesh), and you'll know for next time. <br /><br />Training, taper and a lot of trust goes a long way. I think we all have to learn those lessons for ourselves, usually the "hard" way, but always with reward. Running will always have something to teach us, that's for sure! :) <br /><br />Can't wait to hear the rest of the story...Heather @ Dietitian on the Runhttp://dietitianontherun.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099670252831293133.post-89926465552557967452012-05-01T08:22:25.280-07:002012-05-01T08:22:25.280-07:00You are amazing Lauren!

Once we push ourselves a little (more), we can do more than we think! That sounds like a great race.

I am trying hard to follow that this week and take it REALLY easy even though I'm feeling anxious and icky and bloated. I know it'll be worth it come Sunday. <br /><br />CAN'T WAIT for part 2!!!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185652640389232120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099670252831293133.post-73411236309767760322012-05-01T07:28:57.498-07:002012-05-01T07:28:57.498-07:00Congrats!!!
