Great Job Cheryl. You did AWESOME!!! Mind over matter!!!
I loved your report-put a lump in my throat. So happy for you and even happier that your nagging injury didn't come back to haunt you! I'm so excited to hear you want to do it again! Way to go.

Cheryl...I am very excited for you as well! Congrats on completing the Chicago Marathon! Your report was great and well worth the wait to read. I was so anxious to hear how things went and couldn't wait to hear. Perhaps I can "think" about doing a Full Mary one day. You've definitely got me thinking now. Wonderful Job!

Great job. IMO, the first is the hardest. Then you know what to expect in future marathons.

Great Post Cheryl!

Nice talking to you post race, as well.

1 question, why didn't you put poky on the phone? Sad

Otherwise, great job, and good luck to you next year.
