A Quick Update

Well, my day pretty much sucked. I’m still waiting for the official results, but I’m somewhere between 5:27 and 5:35. Details to follow – but suffice it to say the wheels started coming off the bus around mile 17 or so.

But – this much I will say. In my opinion, this was the. best. course. ever.

Once again – more to come in the next day or two.

  5. Hey Glenn...I was among those getting worried when I didn't get any updates after 10K...so I was thrilled when I read on twitter that someone had seen you and you had finished. I think my husband and kids think I really am your stalker because I shrieked "Hooray Glenn!" and did a fist-bump when I read it...then I had to explain that you are one of my blog-friends to their curious looks... LOL.

    So congrats on finishing. I don't care what anyone says finishing 26.2 is a huge feat no matter what! There were some pretty nasty hills in the beginning there. It may have been a great course, but it was not an easy one.

    Rest well tonight friend!

  9. sorry to hear things didn't quite go as planned. i didn't receive updates after the 10k either (but i did for other people). i guess i've had enough malfunction-experience with those things that i chalked it up to faulty tracking and that you were doing ok.

    congrats on another marathon. take a day or two (or more) and i look forward to hearing about it!

  10. Congratulations on finishing the Marathon yesterday. My finish was not what I was planning either, the wheels started to come off around 16. But I finished my first marathon yesterday too. Congratulations again! You are awesome.
