I did not stick to the training plan like I wanted to… I was iron anemic most of my training, got 4 iron infusions. Finally felt better than I strained my calf during my 16.5 mile run a month before my race. On race day I showed but 40 mins after my start time (10:30 or slower pace)… the race had a 5.5hr cut off. I ran it in 5h 12m! I’m so incredibly proud of myself. I could not have done it without my support people. My husband and friends met me at mile 17 to keep me motivated to the end.
