I am home.

And I am a marathoner.

I have a lot to process. It was a crazy, hard, wonderful and emotional weekend. I’m having all the feelings, and I think I’m just too tired to make sense of most of it.

Thank you for all your kind thoughts, messages, encouragement and love. You are all so amazing. I am going to get a recap written this week, once I can get my head around everything.

In the meantime, we have a great giveaway going on for a Spartan Race entry. If you’re looking to try something new or take on an obstacle course race, be sure to enter!

Also, ZOOMA Florida is coming up! I’m getting my gear together to take on Saturday’s race! Who’s ready?

      So much food! I am giving myself until tomorrow, and then it’s back to normal eating.

    A huge congrats! This is definitely something to celebrate. And sheesh. With all the marathon talk, I’m considering doing one in a few months! I’ll have to talk training with you when I see you this weekend! I hope you are resting up a lot this week and eating everything (orrrr, is that just what I would be doing? haha)

      LOL! You probably won’t want to talk to me, because I am firmly in the camp that I am NEVER doing another marathon! Ever! Today is my last day of eating all the things. I just hope I can squeeze a running shoe on my bruised foot on Saturday, or else it’s going to be ugly.

      <3 A friend of mine purchased it for me when she went to the expo on Wednesday. They didn't have any left on Saturday when I showed up. I wasn't sure if I would like the actual race shirt, and wanted something a little more "Yay, me!" to wear.
