Marathon Coma

I'm currently trying to dig myself out from under the massive piles of work I was welcomed back to (This? Is the exact reason I never go on vacation.) and attempting to find the words that could even begin to describe the whole marathon experience.

I'm coming up short.

Turns out, all I can talk about is the marathon and the whole experience, but, I don't think I can even begin to do it justice. But, I'm happily reliving it each and every single time I attempt to stand, sit or move--yes, I am that sore.

Until I can find the words and download all the pictures (PS. My camera battery died on Friday. Let's not talk about, k?), I leave you this one captured on my cell phone just after I finished the race.

The Marine Corps Iwo Jima Memorial.

We finished the race here.

I could just cry (again).

God Bless The USA.
