At the start, all smiles.
(wearing a Brooks ID shirt tends to get you in a lot of pictures...I'm not that worthy)
Just past the half way point, feeling ok.
Starting to hurt but still hanging in there.
This is the exact spot that Dave later told me he knew something went wrong. Geesh, I wonder if the look on my face gave it away.
Trying to be a good sport.
Shocked, happy, relieved that I actually made it to the finish!
After the finish, teary eyed and cramping terribly. BUT, still smiling!! My body might have crapped out, but I still finished.

Way to finish Denise! Congrats on another marathon!
BTW you look so skinny (:
Congrats on the finish!
At least you finished!!!! Sorry to hear it did not go as well as you wanted!
You did awesome.
My favorite is the third one from the bottom. Head slightly cocked to the left. I have one very similar to that in my collection.
I'm just glad the thoughts I am thinking in photos don't appear above them. ;)
Yes, you still finished and that's the most important, well done! I love this "stolen photos post"!
Pictures are worth a thousand words and these ones say that even amidst a tough day you still did not give up!!!
Those pictures tell an incredible story. And you rocked your Brooks gear!
Congrats! Glad you included pictures to help tell your story.
if i email you links to my proofs can u steal them for me??? *lol*
I think the pics are really good! and that shirt rocks :D
Congrats again on the Marathon! Love the post, pictures are definitely worth 1,000 words! Screen cap of the zoom... why didnt Ithink of that?! Actually that gives me an idea...
You're right - you can definitely see the expressions change. The one constant? You kept moving. Don't forget that picture, too.
Thats right...you still finsihed :)
pictures always tell such a good story. glad you were able to keep the smile on after the finish!
A couple of those were hard to look at! You look in pain. I don't like that :(
I don't mean to laugh (since allll of my race pictures are awful), but this is really funny. I love your attitude! :)
Congrats too, btw!
xoxo,

agree with you on this;
They say a picture is worth a thousands words.

love these pics!! you still finished and in a super respectable time (one I'd love to run!) :)
THanks for sharing your pics. And, yeah, you finished even w/the pain. Definitely something to be proud of!
YOU FINISHED! Be proud lady! The time doesn't matter, you stayed strong! I love the pics, especially of you smiling.
I'll text you on Sunday! Enjoy your weekend lady!
You look great at the Finish.
And I'm sure plenty of other racers start out all smiles until they find the wall. I know you'll find your redemption when you're ready.
Nice job appropriating the proofs.
You made it! COngrats.
