24 hour final report - the end

Guest J20-blogmaster Ron Mancini wraps up his stint with this post, the last report from "ground zero" at Crissy Field:

The 24 hour run ended at 9am this Sunday morning. Antonia finished her last countable lap at 9:05am. She completed 69 laps for a distance of 70.2 miles. She completed her goal of at least a 100K distance, which she exceeded. She also won first place for her age group for the 24 hour event. She also won this standing last year in the same event. Do I hear the term Triple-crown being said for next year??????? She is sore, her knees hurt and was dead tired after the event. She is currently take a well deserved good long nap.......no wonder, she only took about a 17 minute nap during the night before continuing on her lap completion! We all should be proud of her accomplishment both for her own athletic goals, but also for the pledge donations she was about to secure for this event to help Jenny and Ed. GREAT JOB, ANTONIA!!!!!!

Nevermind that I think you're a little insane for sleeping only 17 minutes :) ....
