OMFG kill me now. I missed sub-22 by like 5 seconds because I STOPPED AT THE WRONG TIMING MAT.
Congrats anyway. What is the deal with the double timing mats? I always run through both at the finish to be safe, but not sure when to start/stop my watch. But usually only a second or two between them.

Lauren, congrats on the race. I'm glad you weren't as close you thought so your head doesn't explode.

It's been a tough holiday for me. On Wednesday, my oldest dog, a 12 year old rottweiler, had a seizure and her hind legs are now paralyzed. The vet doesn't know what caused it, but suspects a brain tumor. The only way to know for sure is to put her under anesthesia (risky given her present condition) and run a cat scan. We elected now to take that risk because, if they found a tumor or lesion, there is no way of treating it given her age.
So we have her on anti-seizure medication and steroids with the hope that the steroid might reduce and inflammation spur some increased mobility. It is not a completely hopeless situation, but it doesn't look very good right now. It's just really hard, given that we lost our other rottweiler last year. My family was very understanding and supportive, but I'm pretty much sick with worry right now.
Life is good.

My deepest sympathies. That is tough.
