I was lucky enough to see FC cross the finish line at the Big Sur International Marathon in Carmel, California on April 26. FC knocked off her first marathon in about 4 hours and 20 minutes. The marathon touts itself as one of the hardest in the world (nice choice for a first marathon, FC! The race’s tag line is, “the best and worst marathon time you’ll ever have!”)

Any other marathon and FC easily breaks the 4-hour mark. Did I mention the headwinds were reported to be 25 knots on race day? Guess that’s what you get for running down a mountainous stretch along the Pacific Coast Highway.

Needless to say we are all very proud of FC. Nice work!
