Last night at this time, I was sitting in an ice bath, scrolling through tweets and FB messages. I was in a daze, amazed by the support I felt and elated that my day had gone so well. I woke up this morning, looked out the window at the pouring rain, and thanked my lucky stars again. Race day weather was perfect, and everything else fell in line.
I have so much to tell you all—I got peed on during the bike segment, for one, and my lordy child, 26.2 is a mother of a long way to run—but right now, my feet are swollen, at least three toenails are going into retirement and are throbbing accordingly, and getting up from a sitting position is getting incrementally and exponentially harder. I am calling it a night—I think I slept about 3 hours last night, I was so hyped up—and heading to my own bed. I pick up my rugrats tomorrow at my mom’s house, and we’ll head right back into summer.
I’ll have a full race recap just as soon as I can. Hope you all have a great Tuesday.
