Well, it's official. I have completed my first marathon in 5 hours 1 minute and 4 seconds, and let me tell you I am tired!!! It was definitely one of the hardest things I've ever done in my life! At the end of my race, I even shed a few tears. I can definitely say that the race was an extreme mental and emotional test, not to mention a physically challenging one. I actually got to run with some of my running club friends along the way, but nothing could beat seeing my sweet family along the route. I want to thank my dear family and my friends who supported me all along my journey. More pictures to come in a later post, but right now, I'm getting some sleep!!

Maria,
I am so proud of you! It has been a long journey and I know you have worked so hard. I know it was important for you to show you kids that you can do anything you put your mind to---and now you have!
I thought about you all day Sunday!

I am so astounded yet proud that you ran that marathon! Great job!
I can only run a 5k and I tear up when I reach the finish line so I can only imagine your crying at the end.
I am so sorry to hear about your mom. You always spoke kindly of her and I know she was proud of you, Maria! I hope to hear from you soon. You can email me at tracilynn8@mac.com
