I honestly had the SAME time 3:59:54 when I tried for a sub 4 at the NJ marathon last May! Great job! My goal for Marine Corps at the end of the month is to hold a steady 9 minute pace so I don’t have to run for my life as I cross the finish line to be sub 4 again 🙂
Kayla says
Even though you felt awful… I feel inspired! You TOTALLY pushed yourself for your goal! Something I will remember in my last few painful miles!!
Nicole says
WHOOOHOOO!! Great job!! I think you need an extra large cup of Yogurtland and a garden shovel (no wimpy spoons today!) to celebrate!

Brutal indeed. Too bad we didn’t get the June gloom like weather like last year. Congrats! Glad to see someone met their goals.
I looked for you during the out and back portions, but I probably missed you when I started walking through CSULB.
