You are legendary. And so is Lena. I’m sure there are things you question but at the end of the day, you did the damn thing and set a PR. Vomit or no vomit, it’s all there. And we are all SO DAMN PROUD OF YOU.

It’s funny, this makes me think of some people I regularly see on my runs. Three different groups of elderly people, out on their walks. At some point whenever I see them, which is several times a week, they’ll say to me “you know I wish I could do that.” My response is always the same and that’s this ,”You know, it’s just like anything in life. It’s (literally) just one foot in front of the other. So you are doing it, just a little differently. Maybe I should slow down.”

You put one foot in front of the other and nailed it. Just got there a little differently than you thought. Icon.

Yo congrats Flan! Happy for you. I fear the weather and my stomach on every run. Really impressive that you overcame and PRd. Starting and finishing. That's what matters. Way to go my friend.

Congratulations!! So happy for what you accomplished. You've done a great job prior to this articulating the idea of finding achievements even if you don't reach all your goals and that seems to be how this race went. And some impressive achievements no less!
