Though I have to say, in the beginning I didn't think I would.
Thoughts at this moment: "Worst idea, ever!"
I ran most of the time, though at times it was a slow shuffle. I had to walk a little bit here and there because my left knee hurt and my right foot felt as though it were going to split open. Other than that...it wasn't so bad.
I was coming down the home stretch and the cheers were getting louder. That's normal in a race near the finish, but I decided to look over to the side and I saw a guy booking it to the finish. The street was divided into two lanes, and he was in the other, empty one. He...was the first finisher of the marathon. He beat me by a few feet and he ran double what I did. I couldn't help but clap for him. I will post my results
I met my sister for breakfast at Boychik's and finally put my sticker on my car. Yay!
Yummy biscuitos.
When I got home I found a nice little gift and note from my roommate, Kami.
P.S. the results were posted last night - my time was 2:27:46.
