Nike Womens Marathon!






I had a good race overall. It was only my second full marathon but I was able to really make some improvements. In Rome not only did my knees give up on me way too early in the game, I just didnt tackle it hard enough mentally. I also wasnt prepared well enough with food and water. This time it was on. I ate and drank all week, as well as rested. I only stopped at one water stop to refill my water bottle and then another time to apply biofreeze to my knee that was acting up. Oh and another time to eat some almonds and pose for a picture! In Rome I stopped at least three times to pee, at least 5 times to get water and food, and then I walked on and off aboout 10 miles because of my knee! I think the only thing that kept me under 6 hours in Rome was the fact that the course was flat! Sundays hills I was prepared for, took them on, and still shaved almost 40 minutes off my Rome time! Next stop LA in under 5 hours!
