We did it!

Suzi and I are sore and tired but we ran all of the 26.2 miles to complete the Las Vegas Marathon! Katie finished the half marathon as well! We all started at 6:07 AM to the Viva Las Vegas song and fireworks as we ran 6 miles down the strip and to the suburbs of Vegas. Katie and I were able to run together through the first 5.5 miles until the half and full marathons split.

It was incredibly difficult and while running, I promised myself never to repeat such an agonizing event. In the end it was a great experience but I think I would prefer to just stick to the half marathons from now on.
