I'm not dead.
Phew.
Finished the marathon in 3:45.
I'm really happy with the fact that I had negative splits every 5k from start to finish... I ended the race at a pace over a minute-per-mile faster than I started. And I finished at a full-on sprint. Sometimes, I doubt my own sanity.
Rock. Fucking. On.
Going to sleep now. My calves are *killing* me.
Love to all. Even you, the people who STOPPED on the finish mats.

You Finished... That was a goal, was it not? That was quite a journey for you. You have achieved a new level in your sobriety, remember that.
Armstrong did his best at 2:59:36
So I think you did well. I don't know if I could run a marathon. So much to ponder on...

Insane! Amazing! Spectacular!
I would be dead right now, so love to you, the one through whom we live vicariously.
Congratulations!!!! Wow, that's terrific!
I want to walk the marathon. I applied a few years ago but my number wasn't pulled (I was walking 12 miles every Sunday and several miles during the week).
I think you've inspired me to try again!
wow! To both finish and not be dead? That's freakin awesome, dude. Congrats! We're proud!
3:45???? That's fucking AMAZING, dude! My hubby is duly impressed/jealous. (His finishing time two years ago was over 5, disappointing him to no end...)
...and nice biceps to boot.
Awesome!!! Congratulations!
Did you hear? Lance Armstrong said it was the most physical thing he has ever done? (hee hee I say to my cycling husband)
Yeap, what everybody else said!
You DA man!
You.
Kick.
Ass.
GO RICHIE GO Indeed!!
Wow, I am so proud of you. Way to go!!!

I'm glad I can now brag that I "know" someone who ran and finished the NY Marathon - in good time as well!
A friend of mine ran it in 3h59... You beat him! :P
Rock on! I can't even watch the NYC Marathon in 3:45!
Dude, CONGRATS!!!! That's a great time!
Congratulations!!!
