    I don't know what is going on with my face in this picture, but there's a 10K finisher behind me.  Just to the left of her is the pack that had just passed me going into the 13th mile, and that I thought I'd never see again.

                          That is definitely a keeper; a floater, great time and you look good and strong at the end, be proud of it.  If it was me I would be pale, pasty, sweating, face grossly distorted, while tripping over my tongue at the finish (the important part being that I was out and I finished).

                            Keep running, they get better worse.  You may even get to a point where none out of 17 from a single event are even worth looking at!

                             

                            Nice pic, what did it set you back, dinner for two?

                              It was wierd.  $9.99 to download it, and $10.99 if you want a glossy 4x6 AND the download.  I figure it's worth doing at least once.
