So I fucked up and didn't run a marathon to get a BQ time (didn't run my planned race in March due to work) -- that is until the Friday before the deadline -- in San Antonio -- in 90 degrees --  solo -- while official (I had a race director there on site) I dragged myself in at 3:28.

Not realizing the final week would still be based on best time or I really could have pushed to get 5 min under BQ time. Yes-- I'm a dumb ass.

So -- now I wait -- been planning to run for two years and now I wait.    This really sucks!!!
