YEAH TEIGYR! You finished, and after not being able to breathe and puking!? You ARE a stud. I puke, I'm done for the day... or maybe even the week.

Tremendous job -- and it's only your first. The next one will be far better. The fears of the unknown are now gone and you can just go out and run your race.

I hope you are feeling better and enjoying the fact that you ran/ finished an entire marathon! WOW! Congratulations.
