I did it. My first marathon in 4:23 and change.
E.J.Greater Lowell Road RunnersCry havoc and let slip the dawgs of war!May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be always at your back, may the sun shine warm upon your SPF30, may the rains fall soft upon your sweat-wicking hat, and until you hit the finish line may The Flying Spaghetti Monster hold you in the hollow of His Noodly Appendage.
With time goals shot, and the hope of finishing under 4 hours long gone, I detoured to see them. After a few hugs, kisses, a few I love yous, I am so proud of yous, and many teary eyes (I had to put my sunglasses back on!), I turned back towards the finish line. As I crossed the line, I raised one arm to the sky and pointed up. I did it. My first marathon in 4:23 and change. Not what I'd hoped for but it is what it is. Can't change that. I finished and of that I am proud. Lots to improve on and I will be back. Only 201 days until the Mississauga Marathon on May 11, 2008
At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.
