    What a wonderful accomplishment! You should feel extremely proud of yourself- you never gave up! I hope the soreness eases up for you soon! Will you be doing it again next year? :tongue:

    Thank you so much everyone :)

    I had to laugh at this as my first words once over the finish line were...... "never again"!! lol.

    You will soon forget the pain and I'd put money on you doing it again next year! It's like childbirth. If we remembered the pain NO ONE would have more than 1. What an amazing accomplishment! Congratulations!

    LOL, well I did end up with 2 kids so maybe haha!

Thanks again for all you do and a very sincere Congrats to you!:heart:

    Thank you so much everyone for your kind words! I really appreciate them so much!

    Hey maybe I should make a deal with myself and commit to doing it again when I reach my goal in another 50lbs and see if it is much easier lol.

    Congrats! I can't imagine that! Best way to combat muscle soreness is actually the opposite of what you might think. I love warm baths, but cold soaks actually fight the inflammation in your muscles. (Heat makes them more inflammed.) Fill your tub with enough cold water to cover your legs. If it's not cold enough for you, add ice. 15 minutes a day and you will feel like a new person within a day or two. They are not fun, I will admit, but I feel worlds better after I cold soak. Let me know how it goes!

    WOW!

    I'm totally blow away by this! How seriously incredible, I struggle to force myself through an hour of running... But almost 11 hours and trekking through that? Seriously, so amazing.

    Get some bananas and epsom salt, eat the bananas and soak for a bit in the tub with the salt. Also, even though it'll suck, stretch daily it'll help with the soreness.

    Congratulations again!
