P is for...

Persistence.
She trained.
She qualified.
She flew to Boston.
Monday the temperature at the start of Boston was 80 degrees.
She started at 10:20.
She had hoped for a personal record.
3:48:06 was her time.
The temperature was 89 degrees when she finished.
3:19:29 was her time last year.

 Stats:
1,367th out of 11,152 women

Congrats Kira!

I like the bullet-list style of this post. I'm going to look for an opportunity to do that with one of mine.

Impressive stats. If I ran the Boston Marathon, my stats would be tied around my big toe while I rested in a drawer in the morgue.
