I love it when a race shirt actually looks good (and yours does, missy).<br /><br />I'm so sad about the heat and blisters. You are a trooper to stick it out. You really need to visit Oregon soon (Eugene?) and be reminded what the proper temps are for a half.<br /><br />I wear an iFitness belt all the time, but ALWAYS attach pins to it, just in case (ever since my bib ripped in the Colorado wind, pre race). If I don't use a pin, there's usually someone else that needs one.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02219457885959637135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-33677482275360147492012-12-10T09:39:18.013-06:002012-12-10T09:39:18.013-06:00I thought about you all day yesterday.

Every once in a while I see things from him on Facebook and I just adore his whole positive vibe! If I ever, ever get to TX you must set it up for us to run together.<br /><br />As soon as I read 'blister' I thought, "Why oh why do these stupid, stupid things happen during the race that don't happen during training?!" Ay yi yi. The nature of running I suppose. Still I'm so happy for you - even with the false start, the not so ideal weather, and feeling like you were done running at mile 8, you kept your attitude positive and you finished like the strong woman you are. That's a good thing, fo'shizzle!!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12308631304554235792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-8733523967592384932012-12-10T05:25:31.270-06:002012-12-10T05:25:31.270-06:00Very well done Shelley, I'm so proud of you.
...Very well done Shelley, I'm so proud of you. <br />YOU DID IT! Great and fun report to read.<br /><br />And now it's time to relax and run for fun and think about what you are going to do next year. Seems to me you might be happier doing 10 or 15K runs instead of the half. But that's my opinion, I could be wrong. <br /><br />Enjoy the fact that you finished this one strong and be proud of yourself! <br />Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287705328335828286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-16846310021214715882012-12-10T05:07:53.367-06:002012-12-10T05:07:53.367-06:00Ive been waiting for this.
