After 8 miles I was off pace and thinking of dnfing for the first time ever. I finished, and even kept ahead of the No More Running Police but it made for a dreadful marathon. I could feel your pain, and am impressed by how you broke the parts of it down so wonderfully later.peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17284634727671648704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15430509.post-31190400615155761502008-02-28T18:31:00.000-05:002008-02-28T18:31:00.000-05:00I'm doing the half at Big D.

My fastest marathon was not really fun until I crossed the finish line.ShirleyPerlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09237828591170908960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15430509.post-57129368810915871052008-02-23T23:06:00.000-05:002008-02-23T23:06:00.000-05:00I think we're not fully rational in the first week...I think we're not fully rational in the first weeks after a marathon. :-) But I'm intrigued by that Dallas marathon. It's a relatively new one, and since I have a cousin in nearby Arlington, I could probably do it on the cheap...<BR/><BR/>Oh, Ellie-- quit putting ideas in my head!!!Ann (bunnygirl)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04938134750150653386noreply@blogger.com
