WOW... I can't believe it's over.

Yesterday I began my day by taking my 2nd taxi ever in New York City to central park making my way to my corral along with 18000 other runners. After a VERY chilly wait I began the race of a lifetime around Central Park, through Times Square, past the new World Trade Center, and through the Battery Park tunnel ending finally at the South Street Seaport.

There are so many things to say about this race and this trip and I just haven't had time to process it all just yet. I've been up for nearly 24 hours now and I need to go to sleep and digest everything that's happened. My race report will be up in the next couple days complete with some great photos!

Until then I will share a couple of things:

1. This was the coldest start to a race I've ever had.

2. I've never run while that sick and I'm STILL sick... seriously.

3. It was not a PR despite my best efforts. Not sure how I feel about this yet.

4. NYC was completely different than I imagined.

5. This could be the MOST memorable race I've ever done.

6. I have never been this sore post-race before.

7. I love Vancouver and I'm so happy I live here.

More to come. I hope everyone who ran on St. Patrick's Day had a great time, I look forward to reading about it but now I need to rest and recover.

Also, I have some more great reviews/giveaways coming up so stay tuned!
