 | Emily and I after a
training run in heavy rain. |
 | Emily
warming up moments before our first marathon. We'd both gotten up
at 4am to run the marathon...at this point we're about 20 minutes
away from the 8am start. I'd say the expression on Emily's face
captures our feelings about the race at that point better than
words: a little apprehension and a lot of excitement. You just
can't tell she's excited because she's too damn cold. |
 | Around mile 15.
Looking good, I'd say...we'd just gotten over the
biggest hill and were about to coast into Golden Gate Park. |
 | In a dead
sprint for the finish line...I cannot express
just what it feels like to see the finish line after having gone that
distance. It's more than the 26.2 miles of that morning, it's the
many hundreds of training miles we ran just to get there. This was undoubtedly
the best moment of my life. |
