I finished the B&A Half today. We woke up to snow and ice and I can't believe I actually went all the way to Severna and ran 13.1 without any music. It took me longer then the OBX and I didn't even stop to use the bathroom! Maybe it was the ice?? Had to walk over the bridges that were slushy. I ran so slow the trail bike was behind me but at least I was out there doing it no matter how slow. I passed people in the beginning so I knew there was people behind me-not many but come on. After about mile 7 this volunteer said "you must have gotten a late start" I don't think I realized what he said until I passed-wtf?? There were still people behind me believe me I passed them on the turn around. It was cold and long run just people at the water stations not much else. Tom took video and as I am coming up to the finish they announce my name and out of nowhere this guy comes speeding by! And he passed me of course but he just finished a marathon in the time it took me to run 13.1!!! Speedy I am not just slow and steady and I have finished two now. I really need to get these 10lbs off now so it is easier on my joints. It has been hard-do I carb load do I really need to probably not.
