And glad to hear you got over your leg/knee issue that you were having last November. (I sat next to you at the Minnesota/Illinois game last year - drinking the captain's). I finished at 3:17:24, and it was an amazing experience. There was nothing like turning for home and seeing the finish line of the Boston Marathon... Hope all is well, Chris Hey Candice-

It even made my heart beat faster like I was running. I haven't qualified for Boston yet, but my goal is to do it this year, and reading this has given me all the more reason to do it. Thanks for the inspiration. What a great post! It even made my heart beat faster like I was running.
