I woke up this morning feeling very refreshed. After the race yesterday we came home and rested for a bit then we were off to a post race dinner with the group. What a wonderful group of people!! It was an amazing meal and so much fun. We came home and put the kids to bed then relaxed a bit before heading to bed ourselves.
I was worried when I woke up. My body felt good!! I half expected to wake up in the night and not be able to move but I was pleasantly surprised. I'm stiff and a bit sore but nothing terrible. Things got a bit tighter as the day went on and I sat at my desk but when things started to feel uncomfortable I got up and wandered around the office for a minute. Right now my right leg is more sore than anything else. The sad part was that I couldn't wear regular shoes today because my big toes hurt, rather my big toenails hurt. I'm currently wearing blue nail polish so I can't tell but I'm afraid my nails might still be blue if they weren't polished. Hopefully they will feel better tomorrow.
I expected the pain and stiffness, I expected to be tired, what I didn't expect was the outpouring of support I have received. The amount of facebook comments and the amount of people who have read here today has blown me away. I knew that the Runners' Edge gang was amazing but just how amazing was beyond what I could ever imagine. I checked in here today to find that my "pageviews" had more than quadrupled from what my normal daily views are. I then found that it was because someone had posted a link to my blog on the Runners' Edge homepage!!! WOW!! Now of course not everyone to comment or to read is from running but probably 3/4 of them are. So to all the people who have shown me support over the last few days Thank You!! I can never express how much it means to me to know that there are so many people rooting for me to succeed!
