I am so impressed but mostly happy for you ! Colleen Diane Duenas wrote: I did it!!! I completed 13.1 miles in 3 hours and 40 minutes!! Which means I did in in the required time limit. Barely, but I did it!!! At about mile 11.5, my right leg really started to hurt. It was weird, it actually felt ok when I was running but when I took my walk breaks...I could barely walk. It was really amazing. My program rep Kara who had to step down about two months ago was there. She had been such a source of strength for me...always believing in me. She actually stayed at the finish line to greet me when I crossed. She hugged me and said see I told you you would do it. At that point, I lost it....I cried so much from sheer happiness that I indeed had succeeded in my goal. I trained hard for six months, I never gave up, I gave it everything I had and OMG I DID IT!!!Im really sore right now. But as soon as I get the pictures I will post them.HugglesPS: Francisco, Im so glad I found you before the race began... I was telling my pace group that I couldnt do it until I got my hug from you and I got it just in time!!! You are awesome!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 , I wrote a long e-mail to you earlier, and it came back to me. The bottom line is that I'm terribly proud of you...and I just think you should be bursting with pride in yourself. Next year, baby...you are going to have a partner, and we're going to cross that line together! Robynn Diane Duenas wrote: LOL Thank you Kerre!!!> > I did it!!!
