.VICTORY!.

.I.DID.IT!.



I'm officially a member of the 30km club!



32Km in 2:51:00



I just just got back, so I'm a little jacked up on endorphins and Advil....but I feel GREAT.



I took 3 Advil right before I left home...I'm a little ashamed to say, but i was SO nervous... and he first 5K KILLED ME...i honestly didn't think I could do it, I was almost in Tears...but at about 8k it kicked in and I was off and running...literally. My dad accompanied me and we chatted for the first 16KM then I was on my own with my thoughts and my I-POD. I love the mix Nat made me. it really was perfect.



I'll keep this short. but when I hit the 30Km mark and I heard my watch go .beep.beep.beep!. I threw my hands up in the air and whimpered "I did it, I'm going to Dublin" to myself. a little weird, i know, but almost 3 hours into a run, you get a little weird...



Thanks to everyone who wrote on my blog, and sent me word of encouragement on Texts this morning. you all kept me running. I can beat this injury. i proved it! now I'll blog tomorrow...about how I cant walk and am maybe broken for life and the Advil prevented me from feeling it...but that's tomorrow...right now I feel GREAT!



.X.X. (And thrilled)
