Although the weather was ridiculously hot and humid - I finished. Although my time was two hours behind what I was hoping for - I finished. Although I suffered injuries to both knees and could barely walk after mile 19 - I finished. Although I had numerous opportunities to quit - I finished. In summary, the marathon pretty much sucked - but, I finished. http://www.just-finish.com See you next year, Kevin I finished!
