My first Marathon--Whiterock
Marathon in Dallas TX
As I
reflect on each of my marathons, I will start with the Whiterock Marathon in
Dallas TX in Dec 2009. If you have read my blogs about my marathon experience's
in the past, I always point out the crazy outfits and experiences. The
Whiterock did not disappoint, there were many Elfs and Santa's. But, as I look
back on this race, it was about finishing. I remember as I made it to Mile 16,
I was thinking it would be possible. That was before the pair of hills to come
at Mile 18-20. I was warned in advice of these hills, but pushed through and concurred
both. I remember telling myself 6 miles left...let's do this! That was my mind
of course and we all know that sometimes the mind can say GO but the body says
NO! It was a struggle but I made it to the Finish. It was all about finishing
and finishing is what I did! I think I made a fashion statement with my outfit
that day!
