A little puzzle for you all







What do these three things have in common today?


I'll give you a little hint: She got to the 5K checkpoint in 24 minutes and 1 second, currently her pace is 7:45 (JEEZ), and the projected finish time is 3 hours and 23 minutes.

If you're still in the dark, my madre is running the Boston Marathon RIGHT NOW. I'm tracking her online and getting so excited! Her/my friend Monica is running too, and I am loving the technology of being able to track them both and see how they are doing!

Yay Mom!


Updated:
She got to the half mark at 1:40, and the 25K one at 1:59. That's 15.5 miles, for you non-metric system users. KILLING IT. Her pace is 7:42, and her projected finish time is 3:21! WOO!


Updated again:
She is DONE! Her time was 3:20:22, her pace was 7:39, and in her division she finished 32nd!
