Consistently Slow

    Queen Bee Montana Marathon 6:12:12 . 7 hour time limit. Wasn't sure I was going to make it. I was a mile behind the next-to-last runner at mile 8. I did not see another runner until Mile 19. I somehow managed to pass  3 runners. When I hit mile 26 tears started rolling down my cheeks. You would have thought I had just won Boston. It wasn't pretty but I got it done. I'm so ready to go home.

    Run until the trail runs out.

      Running solo in a marathon is tough. That takes a lot of mental toughness to finish! Way to go! Smile

        That's impressive. Which states do you have left? and do you get bonus points for marathons in the US Territories?

          Congratulations. What states remain? I’m new to your story of live.

          Many of us aren't sure what the hell point you are trying to make and no matter how we guess, it always seems to be something else. Which usually means a person is doing it on purpose.

            Ready to race!

              Good luck man!   Keep going.  You are so close.  I know how it feels.  I wrapped mine up in Hawaii.  The skin off the bottom of my foot was gone, but nothing was going to stop me from getting that last one.
