    jimzy: the marathon went well (at least i thought it went pretty good :) my clocked time was 4:14:04, so i was really happy.

    i actually got this weird fucked up chest cold/fever/stomach cramp thing two weeks before the marathon. not a big deal, except it lasted an entire week! i was scheduled to run another 20 that weekend and had to back out at mile 3. the pros say you should put in at least 2 twenty mile runs if not 3 before the marathon, but i only managed to get 1 in. everyone made it out to be more than it was, and i just imagined it as another long run. and that is what pretty much got me through it. less thinking about it the better. more zoning out and letting your mind wander to music the better :)

    • brilliant - well done on finishing it!jimzy
