Spent the past year working toward getting this email...

And now the hard part....

Omg. GRATS and woot!

good work man!

Nice job!

My wife just paid her entry fee. What is it with marathoners, to be excited to run 26.2 miles? I always have to remind her that the first guy who did it actually died.

That's amazing! Way to go!

That's awesome, except now you have to run.

LOL exactly Morpar. I've run 4 half-marathons and feel certain I am capable of the mileage -- now it's about training slowly and staying healthy until November. my biggest concern is keep things 44 year old body well enough to do the run, not really worried about finishing the 26.2

Just keep saying to yourself "44 is the new 34". Mind over matter, you are as young as you feel.

woot!

Tomorrow at 10:30am I will be crossing the starting line of the NYC marathon - my first marathon (with 27MPH winds and a wind chill of 29...oh joy). Wish me luck!

Good luck and kick ass!

Good luck!

GOOD LUCK!!!

lost to the Kenyans I see...

If I read it correctly... 4:28:42. Nice Job!!!

You do read it correctly. Beat my wish list goal time by 75 seconds or so. Beer open, thai food on the way. Not getting off the couch for a while.

Well done AC! Amazing job!

Awesome job.

A testament to what you can accomplish when you set your sights on something and tirelessly work towards it. Congrats JD, very cool!

Congrats on reaching and exceeding your goal....I can't imagine what it would be like to run that distance.
