Congratulations, Quigibo! That's awesome! I wish I had the stamina to run a marathon, but I definitely don't. Props to you!
There's something about Tuesday...


Pushpins 'n' stuff...

Sounds like it was a fun learning experience, marathons can be difficult if you don't know what to expect.

if you ever do a marathon again, what you eat before hand is really important. its different person to person but when you have a big race its amazing what eating the right foods for you can do. if you dont have enough of the right nutrients and energy for the muscles when you do hit the miles at the end its hard

Especially if you have certain dietary needs.

Quigibo that's really awesome! That's quite a feat you've accomplished, and in a fairly short time as well. I lol'ed when you said you ran off when one of the volunteers wasn't looking. ;D I'd love to do a marathon someday. I'll really have to look into it, very inspiring.
