Her First Marathon
Marathon Highlights and Memories:
2005 LA Marathon: In my first ever marathon, I discovered Air Salonpas to rid my cramps. It was amazing, one second you can't walk and the next second, I ran 3 straight miles. I'll admit I ran this marathon because some other girl I knew was running. What can I say, I can be a sucker sometimes. :) Finished about 5:30
2005 Rock and Roll Marathon: Didn't realize the finish line was 3 miles from the start line. I remembered sprinting the last 3 miles and passing almost every runner and it was an amazing feeling that I was able to do that. Trying to keep pace with a 60 year old woman at mile 20. That night, I remembered I woke up on my bed needing to go to the bathroom but my legs were so locked up, I couldn't move and I ended up rolling off my bed and crawling. Good times. Finished about 4:35, my current best time.
2005 Santa Clarita Marathon: Had the worst cramps ever on mile 15 and ended limping the rest of the marathon. 11 miles on one leg. Got stopped twice by cops asking me if I wanted to quit but Cody NEVER quits. Went through stretches on being my self-inspiration on this lonely marathon. Finished about 5:30.
2006 LA Marathon: Speed walked mile 3-12 as John joined me during the race. Got lots of Hi-Fives wearing the proud Trojan shirt. Finished about 5:11
2006 Long Beach Marathon: One runner tripped over and fell bad just a foot from me around mile 8. He was okay luckily. Learned that cramps go away if you change your pace. Still haven't learned that parking far away from the finish line is not smart. Finished about 4:41
2007 LA Marathon: Broke my marathon record by 1 minute, biatch!! :)The hottest marathon I've participated in. Those last 10 miles were the hardest miles I've ever ran in my life. Never seen so many parademics I've seen helping runners due to dehydration. Had 3 cramps but kept trying to run. Helped a runner keep going along the way. Did the Socal Shout with the USC marathon team at the beginning of the race. Finished about 4:34
2007 Rock and Roll Marathon:
2007 Nike's Women Marathon: Yep, just realized how girly this race is. Signed up to run with Cathryn and help fight leukemia. They have pedicure stations along the course and Tiffany necklaces. What am I supposed to do with that? haha
I love to try almost anything at least once. Don't party much but when I do, I'm the life of the party. There's pictures to prove it but we won't get to there right now, shall we? :) Planning to do 2-3 marathons every year. My goal is to finish 100 marathons before I die. That would be an amazing accomplishment. Have to battle and prevent any injuries and it's not easy after talking to many active runners. I still love the Red Sox and the Patriots after being in LA for 10 years. Would love to win a tournament style poker event one of these days. I love country music and have gone to a country concert at least one a year for the past 6 years. Even got the whole cowboy outfit with the boots, hat and belt. I guess you can say I'm pretty unpredictable in that way. But I'm predictable in the way where I am unpredictable. Got it? :)
