Really happy for you and enjoyed reading your blog summary. <br /><br />We also had happy outcomes for our first marathon (we were both first-timers). I finished in 4:15:42, which was right where I trained to be (6 minutes / kilometre...sorry, I'm metric)<br /><br />Not to be outdone, David joined you in the sub 4hr club, finishing 3:55:59. In fact, you guys probably crossed the line within sight of one another.<br /><br />Congrats again and good luck with your next one. Can't wait to read about it online.<br /><br />Matt JacksonMatt Jacksonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109090155728755589.post-21006319864153947912011-12-09T21:21:40.777-08:002011-12-09T21:21:40.777-08:00Blog gift exchange!
