This was my first marathon without Jon. I traveled to MB by myself where I also had a television appearance and a booksigning. I met some other people that were solo marathoners. A woman from Houston who power walked marathons and this was her 17th marathon in 13 months! Another gentleman who had run over 65 marathons and was now achieving the goal of running a marathon in each State. He was about half-way there. I ran well and came in about my usual pace. I think while I am running, "Oh, this one is going to be faster, I can feel it!" And it's not! I really don't care, I feel extremely grateful to be able to do this no matter how long it takes me. Thanks body for showing up for me one more time. I still teared up at the finish, feeling tremendous appreciation for my health and my life.
