The last 24-ish hours :
BOOM. Sub4.
Full recap soon. Beers now.
Big huge super thanks to Santa Barbara International Marathon, SR for putting up with me and not snoring, the instigators that talked me into this (you know who you are), and the few who knew about it that kept their mouths shut.
(ahem, not blabber-mouth Brian)
And to all of you for reading, giving a shit, and fueling the Sub4 fire. Love you.
Ok really, beers time.

Sarah, congratulations (belated) on your Sub-4 marathon PR!
I have been reading your old posts (LOVE all the wedding stuff) and the new stuff at the same time, and I’m finally catching up to myself. Sooo…. I think it’s hilarious you hid your blog from your fiance for so long, congrats on the wedding, honeymoon looked fab, both of your posts (last year and this year) about mom2 made me cry, I thought your OJ Grinch story was brilliant, Vegas looked redic, and if you want to do that in Boston this April, just let me know. (Be warned: You may be over the fear of internet strangers, but I’m not…yet)
