5 Words per Picture – Boston Marathon

Thank you so much to everyone that cheered me on during yesterday’s Boston Marathon. I’m not going to lie, that was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. Stomach issues, random IT pain that started around the halfway point, and a lot of walking through water stations during the second half.

3:15:08 – no where near where I was hoping but I’m just glad that I made it across that finish line!

Both my brain and body are exhausted so the full race recap will have to come later this week. For now I’ll leave you with a little 5-words per picture from marathon weekend!

Thoughts on the winners yesterday? I am SO excited that MEB won! Shalane had a great race too! One day it will be her up there at the front!
