Default Bucket list: Marathon-Check

Ran my first marathon today in DC. The Marine Corps Marathon. Awesome day for a run, cool, sunny, relatively light winds. I finished under the time that I wanted, and I am still here to talk about it. And get this.....I did probably 70% of my training on my overnights, even a few super long runs. So, for those that are resigned to gaining weight, being unhealthy, and letting this job kill you.......heres proof. I ran a marathon 30 lbs lighter than when I started training, while flying 90 hours a month.
