THE 2021 RACE SCHEDULE

What a yucky photo to upload, but yes I finished 20 mile run this am! 72-74 degrees at the start and humidity was 74 percent.  AT 4:30 AM.  5 pit stops for major gi issues- one that involved stopping at my house and changing my running shorts.  Life with crohns and celiac. gotta love!

"RACE" SCHEDULE for 2021

Race is in quotes because not planning on truly racing these events.  But it is a comeback start!

Boston Marathon October 11, 2021.  

Qualifying Race was Grandma's Marathon where I was dealing already with planter fasciitis!  2019 race time was 3:44:25.  I thought I might PR this race but a major bathroom stop and a toenail falling off kinda stopped that one.  BUT what an amazing race.  So beautiful.  I so want to do this one again!  AND this race is about taking my senior girl during her fall break to see schools in the Northeast.  Quality time with my only girl!  And to take in Boston marathon.  How fun is that one!  As my boys say- let's go!  Oh, did I mention that I had plantar fasciitis release surgery end of Dec 2020.  Still trying to get my speed and distance back.  BUT loving being out there!

Ironman Florida November 6. 2021

It is comeback time!  Come back from surgeries and medical diagnoses and fear of COVID since I am immuno suppressed.  

Medical Conditions.  Celiac Disease (2010 diagnosis- sure I have had it since I was a teenager); hypothyroidism (can not remember when I got that one); Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency (either autoimmune or genetical according the my amazing medical doctors) diagnosed in 2016 at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN; Crohn's Disease (with fistulas) diagnosed in 2018.

Last Triathlon September 2015.  Last marathon was the virtual Boston marathon where I limped (waiting for surgery on my foot) along because I thought the jacket was so amazing!
