Sunday, March 20, 2011 ( 7:58 PM ) shut up christine recap of my first marathon experience i totally undertrained and got my ass handed to me. i deserved it though. my only goal was to cross the finish line ~ done didddd it ran the first 20 miles in about 4 hours 30 min, which is excellent for me, considering my longest training run was 12 miles! that isn't fast, but i am very proud of myself thank you very much after 20 miles, my feet said Fuck you, we're walking -- and it took me almost 2 hours to complete the last 6 miles! total time: 6 hours 16 minutes. hallelujah finished it rained like a mofo. we ran with soaking wet shoes for the entire length of the race, and when i took my socks off, my feets were white and bloated. blechh. i experienced zero hip pain! miracle i thought i pooped my shorts. i kept looking down to see if diarrhea was running down my legs. in the end, they were only imaginary poops. maybe eating 2/3 box of girlscout cookies the night before had something to do with it (damn you, samoas! 700 calories worth of cookies in one sitting) at mile 23 i used a porta-potty and was stuck in my stall because i couldn't close my hands to pull up my shorts! my fingers were shaking for whatever reason. i kept trying to slide my shorts up with the palms of my hands, but because of the rain, they were stuck to my legs. i thought i would have to walk out with my bare ass to ask someone to help me. after 5 minutes i managed to get them up and now i am drinking fresh juice out of a young coconut and then i am going to bed #
