My PR on a run (the one that has held for years....) was done at a race when I had no one to run with and there wasn't even anyone in the spectators for me. I did that run TOTALLY on my own and it only sweetened the victory! You did this one by yourself! Go you!!!MaryFranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02507347923712459651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-54564345222568968152016-02-03T10:08:48.918-06:002016-02-03T10:08:48.918-06:00Sounds like a great race.
