Faces of agony

Brad had a great vantage point Sunday to photograph the finish of the Hippie Chick Quarter Marathon.

I really struggled in the last 2 miles, feeling the effects of my week-long illness. But I gritted my teeth and managed to sprint to the finish line, dropping a lot of time off my average.

When I looked through Brad's pictures of my approach, the pain and effort was obvious on my face... and it made me laugh.
Clearly, I was much more concerned about finishing strong than posing for pictures :) Looking at the finish line, wishing it was a little closer: It's still over there: OK... I'll give ya a little wave and a smile. But I'm not going to open my eyes :) :)
