Officially a marathon survivor now. I'll post the pictures tomorrow. I made a bunch of mistakes, number one thinking that 18 weeks of training was enough, and ending with quaffing water and cytomax and sports gel. According to one site I may now have a soup of mollases in my intenstines, which explains why I had no energy for the second half and ran it WAY below my pace. Still, I finished, and there's always another one. Cape Cod's pretty beautiful, too, except for yesterday when it was raining and sleeting and blowing 50-knot gusts... so much for sightseeing before the race. At least it was sunny today, and most of the time, the wind was at my butt, which wasn't fun when I was running by a beach, but fun otherwise.
Pictures tomorrow.
