I beat Katie Holmes!!!!!

I DID IT

i finished the marathon!

my final time was 5 hours 1 minute and 19 seconds

it was an amazing experience even though i was off my expected pace by about 30 to 40 minutes but what can you do!

still not sure im going to ever do this again though but maybe hitting my expected time will be enough to drive me to run another one.

I would like to thank everyone who came to support me (erica, carly, mom, dad, ari, lauren, uncle mike, tara, tal, uncle steve, aunt gayle, danny and marian -- and also farrel, gertrude, cathy r and andrew h whom i saw along the way)

i hit some trouble early on in the race - shin splints at mile 2-6, then tight hips in mile 13 and then some cramping/hitting the wall at mile 17 is when the wheels came off...note to self: dont binge drink and eat 3 weeks prior to a marathon!

so far we are likely to hit $5,500 in charity funds! so thanks to everyone for that!

if anyone wants pix please shoot me an email at david (dot) weisfelner (at) gmail (dot) com

see you next marathon....?

Cya at the finish line

not much to say except its less than 24 hours away

very excited and nervous and anxious

and we topped $5,000 in donations with more rolling in!
