Are you referring to the fruit, the bread, the cheese, the meat, the vegetables, or his enormous paycheque? :lol:

Congrats on the speedy race! I mean, it sucks that you got passed by a banana guy, but if it makes you feel better I got passed by TWO bananas. :roll:

Goldfish crackers are way better than meat and cheese after any race.

Great report - sounds like as much fun as a marathon can be.
2009 Highlights
Marathon - 2:54:05 (Mar 22 - Tokyo)
Half - 1:20:00 (Apr 26 - Hartwell)
5k - 17:09 (Acura 5k - Jul 19)
800m - 2:16.80 (York U - Jul 28 )
Now - Getting back my running fitness
My training log

Why practice running slow? It comes naturally!

"There are two types of injuries that we older runners get: those that we can run with and those that we can't. And if you're over 30 and don't have one or the other, you aren't training hard enough." - Younger Legs blog
