Erika,    Woohoo!!!!    .    This is just great.  Of course we remember last year, & your comeback.... (btw.   your RVM report is one of several that I didn't get to last year in my post baby marathon melt down.  I read it several times of course but kept putting off replying. I'm sorry!)      Virtually watching your foot get to the point where you FINALLY (saying that as one who knows what that takes) backed off of it entirely.. & your patient (eek) and determined & crazy cross training... then your well executed plan between returning to running & Boston...    Well.   I'll just say that you SO deserved this & it just makes me smile all over.   Loved your report.   So happy you had a great time on top of a great race.    Yippee!!!       ok one more .

Congratulations!!!!  That's an amazing accomplishment.

 

So many nuggets of wisdom in your report, but I guess adding a bunch of pre-race stress -- stealing oatmeal, being homeless for a night, booking a "home" in a bad part of town  (where limo service is provided!) -- are key to a breakout  race! LOL

 

Seriously, thanks for taking us along on your race -- the whole read was simply wonderful!

Wow, you are such an inspiration...fast, fun, gorgeous!   I want to be more like you!
