First run since the marathon.  Legs were a bit stiff starting out, but felt good.  Didn't go much distance.  AP was 10:11

Nice and steady and enjoy the extra sleep! Your new BQ picture is fun.

hey sno...I tried to put the new BQ picture in but I see my old one on the blog. you see the new one? Hmmmm. Maybe some technical difficulties or some computer illiteracy on my part :-)

Yes, your new picture is all smiles! :) To see it, you will need to "refresh" your screen. I'm guessing that is your daughter with you?

CL...thanks for the idea of refreshing my screen! Worked like a charm. Is that my daughter? Well, I suppose she could be, but she's not. This is my running partner from Bamako, Mali. She came to the US for the summer and thought she'd try her first marathon! She's 24 years old and finished about 30 seconds ahead of me. Not bad for a 1st! I had a late start in motherhood...my daughters are 10 and 9 years old :-)
