Great report, Pam. Nice to hear you had so much fun as well as a new PR!

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

Pam, I'm so glad that you and Ken had such an amazing experience! I wish I could watch you race, sometime--you sound like you really have such a great time and absorb the atmosphere. That's how a race SHOULD be! You really inspire me! Smile

One more to close out the year? Cool

All I can say is amazing. And, mega-congrats on getting a PR! Your husband going all the way on the next one too? (There is an unspoken rule as to where you're supposed to do your business? ) modal

Nice race! You didn't mention the heat/humidity, which was certainly a factor. Congrats. Nice splits BTW!

CONGRATULATIONS Pam!!! That was really fun reading through your report. Thanks so much for taking the time to write it- we all appreciate it!! It sounds like an awesome race, similar to what i experienced when I ran my one and only Crim 10 mile way way way back. The support from the crowds was beyond words, music everywhere, everyone was SUPER!! It's that memory that keeps me motivated even now. I'm so glad you decided to let yourself "soak it up" like you did! Awesome. Congrats again! Now I hope you can rest up and start feeling like your old self again. (((HUGS)))
