Bummer that the jacket didn't live up to expectations. You kind of (for real!!!) earned something better. <br /><br />I ran Paris twice because it was my first marathon and I felt like after I ran a couple more I wanted to go back and see if it was as hard as I remembered it. But the thing is, it isn't a hard course at all really! There are some tricky bits with big cobblestones but mostly it's a great course. Anyway, I enjoyed it much more the second time, but I don't think my time was any better. I would like to run Berlin again for a better time. In Berlin I had issues with my foot :( When I re-run any race I do always secretly try to beat my last time. Doesn't always work though :)runlaugheatpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09233445490233555647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930457134828005115.post-49583128162205525352019-05-03T16:24:07.730-04:002019-05-03T16:24:07.730-04:00Thanks Becca!

I do the same thing at the end of a marathon - I think OK, just a 10k left, just 5 miles, just a 5k.
