What a fun marathon! My trip didn't start well. I forgot my entire running bag at home and realized this only when I arrived at the hotel. I had to buy
-shoes
-sports bra
-shorts
-gels
-salt tablets
-vaseline
-socks
-hand held water bottle
The only saving grace was that I had my watch and ipod. Oh vey... I was lucky everything worked out OK.
Back to back marathons seem to work for me. I ran a 4:13:47. Not a PR, but 10 minutes faster than last week. Full race report to come. TTYS
Great job! You are really good at those back to back marathons! Well done!
ReplyDeleteGreat way to be able to get all new stuff! :D I should try that one day LOL. WOW, congrats on #13, you're amazing.
ReplyDeleteNice work!!!! OMG...I can't believe you had to buy all that stuff! I am glad it worked out.a
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you had to buy shoes?! well i mean it's funny after the fact but if i were in your (shoes) i would've been flipping out!!!! glad it worked out!!!
ReplyDeleteHoly crap... that's my worse nightmare. Glad it worked out.
ReplyDeleteGreat job. Especially with new everything. That would have freaked me out. You, however, did great. :-)

ReplyDeleteOh no! I'm glad you were able to get all new stuff. What a way to start the trip!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job. Bummer about your running bag. That really sucks!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Mine only got slower this week. Maybe I shouldn't wait a week in between.
ReplyDeleteonly you would get faster running back-to-back marathons :) congrats! i can't imagine your thoughts when you realized you forgot your bag :( i'm sure the rule can be broken when you have to use 100 new things on race day ;)
ReplyDeleteI would have freaked if I forgot my gear!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the marathon!
10 minutes faster than last week? AWESOME!!! Can't wait to read all about it!
ReplyDeleteWell done, Marci! Congrats on another marathon done. You are unreal!
ReplyDeleteGreat job!! And sorry about the running bag drama. I'm sure I'm going to do that one of these days too.
ReplyDeleteNice job! I would freak out if I left all my running stuff at home.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine leaving my bag! Eek! Great job!
ReplyDeleteYou are a marathon rock star! And bonus for a little shopping. :)
ReplyDeleteNew shoes??!! That could have been disastrous! Glad it worked out!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! You must be the queen of keeping your cool if you managed to get and run in totally new gear and beat last week's time to boot! Can't wait to hear all about it.

ReplyDeleteP.S. I cannot believe you are going to be running in the Vermont City Marathon next weekend. Wow !! I do want to meet you. Let's plan on meeting and perhaps run together. I will be emailing you shortly.
Can't wait for the RR! :) Great job at back to back marathons!! :) I can't believe that you had to get all that stuff too, seriously, I would have flipped out!
ReplyDeleteWow, incredible. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Such a drag about the bag but great that you were able to bounce back.

ReplyDeleteback to back! great great great job on that!! and i would have lost my mind about the running bag, but clearly it didn't set u back!
ReplyDeleteHi Marci, thanks for the nice comment on my post yesterday. All the supportive comments have meant so much to me. I really appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteThat would be a sucky way to start off marathon weekend, but didnt seem to bother your time much. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you forgot your bag. Way to roll with the punches and make it all work. Sometimes an impromptu shopping spree can be fun. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on an amazing time! If this trend keeps up, you'll have yourself a PR this weekend.
I can't believe you had to buy all new stuff, ran another marathon, and still rocked a 4:!3! Way to go! You probably passed me somewhere on the course :)
ReplyDeleteHow stressful and expensive to forget your entire running bag at home!! Congrats on running ANOTHER good marathon!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great time! Good job!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I would have DIED!!!!! I'm so glad everything worked out for you! And running faster than just the weekend before is awesome in my book!! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteGreat job!
ReplyDeleteGreat time after a very stressful start. On the plus side, you got all new stuff. :o)
ReplyDeleteNice run! And yay for new running gear, even if they were purchased under such pressing circumstances.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you and Moe on the course yesterday! Looking forward to the report :)
ReplyDeleteOMG that sooo stinks about the bag! But hey at least you were able to make a recovery and post up a nice time :-)
ReplyDeleteWOW that is amazing. Congrats on the back to backs even with having to buy all new stuff!
ReplyDeleteWow! I would have freaked out & gone home if I arrived without my bag! Congrats on the great time!
