The race was a success! We drove down Friday night and got in to San Francisco around 8am Saturday morning. Just in time to pick up our packets, do a bit of shopping, grab some lunch & rest! It was so fun being together with such great girl friends.
Sunday morning brought with it excitement & a realization that it was MUCH cooler than last year's race! But Monique, Rachel & I stuck together through out the race - and even finished about 35minutes faster than Monique & I had last year. It was great. It only started raining on us for the last mile & a half. Otherwise, very enjoyable. And thankfully my knees didn't hurt quite as much as last year either...now don't get me wrong, they ached that's for sure & for a while I was walking like an old woman. But the celebratory margaritas at Mamacita was well worth it! I think between our group of 11 we ordered about 6 pitchers. So much fun. Lots of laughs & encouragement. Of course the highlight of the entire trip were our beautiful Tiffany & Co. finisher necklaces (what obviously sets this race apart from all others!).
Beyond that I have come back totally exhausted (which makes perfect sense). I am literally counting down the hours until Saturday morning arrives and I have the opportunity to sleep in & bum around until WyldLife. I am totally pooped.
So I will make it thru these next couple of days by the skin of my teeth and welcome the time to veg out with my husband. Now if only I could convince my mom to let me take off my 3rd week of vacation the week of Thanksgiving....this might take some major sucking up!
