I can't believe I did it!
Thank you everyone for your support. I totally could not have done it without yooz. It was really hard (but at least I was finally not congested for the first time in like two weeks, though the sprained ankle + hurty knees were not good, whine, whine) and most definitely a mind-over-matter situation (especially after the first 18 or so miles) but I was stylin' in my hair falls, crossed the finish line, and I've got my medal. :)
Today I am sore, tired, and limpy. Kind of amazed I could get out bed. I've got a post-race thing this evening and I might just show up at Diesel after if I can find a parking space close enough to make it seem worthwhile. (Alternatively, if anyone who can chauffeur wants to come with me to said thing (5-6pm), lemme know.) I've already walked about a half-mile today, which seems like enough and I don't feel ready to bicycle.
Details and detailed shout-outs to come later. Y'all know who you are.
But to answer a couple of common questions:
1. No, right now the idea of doing it again holds no appeal whatsoever.
2. Yes, you can totally buy me a beer/drink/lunch/dinner. Let's make plans.
It feels so weird to be done.
