Re: NYC Marathon 2013 runners...

Congrats to all you runners!!!!!! I'm on the fence about ever joining the marathon crew! I'm itching to try, but afraid I can't get all the training/long runs in.

This was my first full Marathon and I fundraised to get in. I wanted to do it last year but was pregnant so I made a promise to do it to myself this year. It was a great experience. I wish I wasn't so anxious though i really would have enjoyed it more! However Brooklyn was amazing the crowds the people it was great! However you are there for quite a long time! The 59th street bridge is super steep many people were walking! 1st avenue was amazing my husband and everyone was there cheering! I loved the Bronx and Harlem! However nothing beats entering Central Park! The crowds and people cheering for you was amazing! I didn't care about my time at all and had no expectations but to finish! I wanted to take it all in and I did I stopped to see my family and take pics. It was def tough by mile 22 I was done exhausted my legs were so heavy i wanted to cry i really did but somehow I finished!!!

Congrats to everyone who finished!!!

You did awesome! I had fun tracking you online lol

Re: NYC Marathon 2013 runners...

just wanted to say I am proud of both my sister in laws for finishing the marathon
one with a time of 3hrs53min
the other 4hrs47min(while this was her 4th marathon and worst time she tripped over a man at mile 18 and still ran the last 8 miles in pain and crying)
and great job to everyone else who ran........something I could never do!! congrats to all
