Then, I topped that in the next mile!  Amazing that this happened after running the Boston Marathon.  I ran 6:31 &#8230; then 6:23! &#8230; then the slowest part, 6:52 &#8230; finishing up with another 6:23!<\/p>\n<p>Overall, my body held up.  I felt fully recovered from Boston, probably by some time yesterday, and stairs are no longer an obstacle.  I was most concerned for this race about my ankle areas, where my capsules seemingly bulge a bit and pinch toward the beginnings of races, sending me suddenly nearly to the ground.  But not a thing in my body hindered me for this race.  I seem to think that running Boston with its hills actually <em>helped<\/em> this race!<\/p>\n<p>Elizabeth ran this race as well, and she also did incredibly, running 6:48s for a 27:09 finish.  And she also ended up placing 10th in her age group!!  I think that is just damn sweet!  She texted me, &#8220;Well I have a great coach!,&#8221; which was really nice to say to me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning in the miserable cold and rain, I did my first race (and run!) since the Boston Marathon.
