"What do all these numbers mean" you ask?
* 5 - The number of months Jamie has been training.
* 2,435 - The amount of money Jamie has raised for cancer research
* 3029 - Jamie's runner number for the Steamboat Marathon
* 06/05/2005 - The date of the Steamboat Marathon
* 32 - How old Jamie was when she finished her very first marathon!
* 26.2 - The number of miles she ran
* 308 - Is the place she finished in out of 421 finishers
* 11:12 - her average pace in minutes per mile
* 4:53:31 - The time it took Jamie to run 26.2 miles!
Jamie did incredibly well. She really was amazing and we couldn't be more proud of her. She broke 5 hours on very first try ever.
We have some pictures up in our gallery.
After she can walk normally again (might be a couple days ;) she's looking forward to her summer off from work (she works for a public school). That is to say, she's off of just one of her jobs until school is back in session. She's looking forward to enjoying more time outdoors without all the running.
Thank you everyone for all of your support. We very much appreciate it!
On a side note, Steamboat Springs, Colorado, is a beautiful place and we strongly recommend getting out there and seeing all it has to offer.
