Quick Marathon Post
Posted on Oct 05, 2008 under Marathon, My Running | 5 CommentsI just woke up from a short nap following the marathon debut. It was a cool pretty much perfect start at 8am that turned miserable with a deluge of rain for 4-5 miles starting around 7. I hit the wall shortly after 20 and finished in 3:25.
I finished and am now a marathoner!!
I’ll have a more in-depth review later this week but wanted to let you know. Thanks for all the spectators who endured nasty weather this morning and for all those who cheered me on!

My first marathon was a 3:28 (so you best me), I knocked off a half an hour the next year. I know you didn't hit your goal time, but that first marathon is a wild card, you'll make big strides next time.
That rain could not have been fun, last year, at Denver Marathon it rained the entire time, 36 degrees, I feel your pain!
Well done!

Congratulations on a great debut race. I will do my debut in 2 weeks. But my time will be much longer.
