So my 27 year old, mother of two and 18 weeks pregnant cousin not only ran the 26.2 mile long Boston Marathon earlier today but she did it with a time of 4 hours, 4 minutes and 42 seconds, which means she averaged 9 minutes and 20 seconds per mile.
In the freezing rain.
And she’s 18 weeks pregnant!
Holy shit.
My record time ever for running a mile was in the sixth grade with a time of 9 minutes and 28 seconds.
Excuse me while I go gorge myself on a king sized twix bar.

Oh man. Seriously. I am in awe, and also insanely jealous. And the Twix sounds like a GREAT idea.

That’s not meant to be sarcastic (just in case it looks that way).

Wow, that’s amazing.
I can’t get over the fact that she did it that quickly.
