I completed my first marathon...for the 5th time

I completed my first marathon...for the 5th time.  At least it felt that way.  I started with my group, lost my group, found my group and then they left me behind.  Along the way, I met Michelle Tischler and Mona from RRFit. Michelle and Mona were first time marathoners.  Their attitude and enthusiasm at completing their first marathon was contagious.  Both ladies had lots of support from friends and family.  Mona's Dad even walked the last 5 miles alongside us.  We would walk awhile and 'putter' awhile until we saw the finish line.  I was thrilled to have experienced their first marathon, it reminded me so much of my first.   What I saw on their faces as they finished was pure pleasure at finishing what they started 25 weeks ago.  Run on, Ladies, you are awesome!!!!
