Comments:

Things did not start out great for Sara. Her leg started bothering on the first hill. By mile 10 we were off pace by 2 minutes. Her goal of qualifying Boston had to change due to her leg pain. I felt great. By the time we got to mile 20 Sara new she would have to walk to finish. She told me to go ahead. I was able to catch a few girls in front of me.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing...this race was for Sara.
