I finished the NYC Marathon

[wyst]

I really was only going to support a friend, didn't plan to finish. I ended up finishing at a pitiful 6 hours, lol. But still, I did it. I ate so much goo and drank so much gatorade and then ate pizza after that I actually gained weight despite running 26.2 miles. Talk about breaking your diet, lol.

I'm happy to have done it, but I won't be running again for a while -- my feets hurt too much, lol.

That is so cool Wyst. WOW ...... I wish I had the endurance to run a mile !!!!!!!!! GOOD JOB GIRL

 

[wyst]

Thanks!

The furthest I'd ever run before was 10 miles, lol. I'm such a dummy, I didn't train enough. I think really it's just mental beyond that point. I bet you guys who have the will power to stay on real BB diets (something I still haven't really managed :-\ ) would have the willpower to pull yourself across the finish lines.

It was really inspiring, all the guys and gals running for people killed.

But the thing that really inspired me to finish? The fact that I kept getting past by old people, fat people, and even one guy with a "heart transplant recipient" t-shirt!

After I saw that, I was damned if I'd quit, lol.
