Detroit Marathon, was anybody else there?

I ran Detroit this weekend. Unofficial time was 3:24:xx. Not great, but not bad for my first marathon. I'm exhausted and my legs have never been more sore, but I'm still proud of my time and already planning for another one in the spring.

Link to PnP thread on the subject.

Are Tod, Tim, John, Glen, Justin, Josh, Tony, or Dan on here? Anybody notice/run with #692? Well, that was me.

From what I've read in the news you were lucky to get out of that race alive :shock:

Great time for your first race!

Thanks! I didn't see or hear about any of that stuff while I was there. Actually, come to think of it, I learned about it from PnP!

Great job! You should be bragging about your 3:24, not apologizing. Most of us mere mortals have a hard time going a few miles at a 7:47 pace, let alone 26 of them! I know how sore I was after a half marathon back in 2001. There's no way I could have run 13 more miles that day.
