Post race buzz

I had intended to post more before the race but the time sort of got away from me. I'm now at home enjoying my post race buzz. I managed 8:45 splits which makes me quite the happy girl. I knew I could do 9:30, I was hoping for 9:00 and I busted my butt and got 8:45. Not too bad, if I do say so myself. I'm sore and I know it's going to be worse tomorrow, but that's what you get when you push yourself. The race was fun - a TON of people (over 20,000 runners), cool music along the way (an awesome blues band at mile 6), and wonderful weather. Really an all-around great race. Now where's that beer?
