I think the Ogden Marathon is jinxed for me and Dixie...but we still love it! The day was beautiful, and I do love the course...it just doesn't love us.We had everything planned out...we started running with the Clif Team pacer Bill...and I thought for sure this was going to be my PR day. We were running a little faster than I thought we would, but I was feeling pretty good...until about mile 12... and I could feel all the liquid sloshing inside me. Not a good sign. From mile 14-26, I lost everything I had ingested, one way or another, and my energy levels were pretty low. I still finished, and we looked pretty awesome in our skirts :) Dixie did great and ran with a painful hamstring.
All in all, I still love that race, but it was not my best day, darn it. Luckily, another race is just around the corner :)

That's too bad--but you'll get to your goal soon, I know it!
Nice work. And in a skirt, too.
That sounded painful! You were a trooper to finish....darling outfits!
Maybe we'll forget that we've had bad luck by the time next May comes around...
