A plaque... hmmm... that doesn't make any sense. I mean, runners get gift certs here all the time.

gift certificates? psh. i got no such thing. there was prize money last year but i just got a plaque. which is fine. 3 grand woulda been nice but i'll survive without it i guess:) and the elevation change was minimal... i couldn't even tell ya what it was, maybe a couple hundred feet? we went steadily uphill for a while but it wasn't like it was in the mountains or anything so... up until mile 22 (there was a beasty hill going up into city park where we finished) the course was pretty easy

Of course you realize that you probably won't have to buy running gear for another year now cuz of all the gift certs and other stuff they gave you.

I had a dream run in Illinois. It reminded me of what Kathy Switzer said of her last Boston Marathon (she ran a 2:58 or something) and she said "the road came and met me).

Out of curiousity, what was the elevation change?

Congrats on BQing on your first time out btw.

yeah i used to run in the wave rider and i liked them pretty well...

it totally was a dream run! seriously! when i was getting ready for it i'd keep picturing myself just having a really good run and winning and being all excited at the end and then that's exactly what happened! it was crazy... it still seems like it's not quite real - like it's just a day dream or something.

Hey, btw... you must have had one of those "dream run" days because you look like you're cruising. Sigh... you make it look too easy. Mizuno makes a good cush shoe btw that's about $20 cheaper.
Heather! Comment by Heather! on June 6, 2009 at 4:54pm
they're just fine but i've been considering trying out some different (ummmm cheaper) ones

Well you have to look good in those pictures when you break the finisher's tape!!! Of course they matter to you.

I wasn't impressed with the 10's. The gel wasn't too stable. Oh well, doesn't matter now, I'm running in a stability shoe anyways. Just wondered how they are doing for you.

How's the foot?

the nimbus 11's are just dandy:) they seem to be a smidge lighter than the 10's but i'm not as impressed with the design (i'm a shallow girl and looks matter to me!).
Andrew Chandler Comment by Andrew Chandler on June 1, 2009 at 10:33pm
And lets not forget the obvious heather, that you ran and won a marathon. btw... how are those nimbus 11's treating you?
Heather! Comment by Heather! on May 30, 2009 at 10:40am
hmmmm.... no numbness at all. i have a feeling that what's going on is that the pain is causing me to be off balance when i run and that's just exacerbating both problems - by compensating for one i'm hurting the other and vice versa. but it's slowly getting better... i tried icing my knee last night and that seemed to help so i'm just gonna take it kinda easy and keep my fingers crossed!

Actually, I think in Arizona, they have that hot tub in center field you can rent and basically hang out and lounge around. I think that would be cool. How's your sugar intake btw?
