Cara Rogers crossed the finish line with a limp.
At 41, the woman who carries herself with ease and class is not used to limping, or walking for that matter.
The bumper sticker on the back of her SUV describes her greatest passion in one word: Run.
"I just finished my first marathon on February 17. I ran the first 14 miles, but had to walk the last 12,” she said.
The Austin marathon was something Rogers had trained hard for and with a 16-week training schedule she expected to do well.
"I would have loved to have run a sub-four-hour marathon. I knew that was a huge goal, but I thought, 'If it's a good day and a good run, why not?'”
About three weeks before the race, Rogers noticed some calf pain.
She cut back on her running, but by the day of the race, she knew there was something wrong.
