Got some race pics from last Sunday's race.
Cold, wet, and rainy for the first hour of the race -- but smiling. Happy to have made it to the start line of this race despite the weather.

Still smiling! Are we sure this is me?? I usually look like I'm being tortured in my race pics! By this point, I had to have been at about 28k, after having met the Grim Reaper.


Not sure how I managed to look so happy at the finish line -- I think it was the combination of accomplishment, relief, pride and excitement, all while my eyes were welling up.
Ok, down to 44 blog posts to read, I'm getting there!

Terrific pictures. You should be on the cover of Runner's World magazine. Once again, Congrats! Now, I see your upcoming marathon in 31 more days. I'd bet you are very excited.
I'm impressed -- smiling after 30K? I might manage that after an easy 5-6 miles but catch me after 10-12 and it won't be smiles! I can't imagine what I'd look like after 18 miles (30K).
happy face = great pics!!

Very nice shots of you. It looks like you enjoyed the whole experience and you've got good reason to feel proud. Well done.

BTW - I am envious of your countdown widget. Mine is so obnoxious.
Great race pics! Are you the spokesperson for UnderArmour?
