With over a year of Plantar Faciaitis and less weekly miles I was hoping to come in under 5 hours. I wasn't sure how it would go. I thought if I could get anywhere near 4:30 I would be super excited. But mostly I just wanted to run smart and not do any damage on feet or legs.
Well...it worked out fabulously! I didn't feel any pain until the last few miles and if I stopped to stretch my knees when they got sore I was able to go without pain again for awhile.
Tom was with me the whole way...also Dan was with us most of the way. They are both way speedier than me but Dan has been hurt and Tom decided to go with me anyway. Dan took off the last few miles and came in a bit before us.
Overall I am very pleased with this SGM #10 for me!
