Some interesting facts about LA Marathon and myself as it relates to the marathon

Total Participants = 25000+
I did not finish first 😭 😭 😭 ...I got overtaken by some long legged kenyan guy and a Russian girl... 😆

Distance: 26.2 Miles
Total fluid consumed during the race: About 4 gallons
Food consumed during the race: 0....my biggest mistake
Post Race: I had the biggest lunch of my life 😃
Lost: 3.5 lbs, A lot of salt, IF poster around 20th mile, pinkiness of one toenail and couple of grams of skin under the feet (read: blister) 😆 😆 😆

My condition at the starting line: Bumbling bee
My condition at the finish line: Dead Man Walking

Hit the wall: 20th mile (Hit the wall is a phrase used in marathon where your body asks you to stop and your mind has to pursuade the body to keep going....you are virtually paralyzed).

Feeling at the end: EXHILARATION like felt never before...

Would I ever do it again: YOU BET 😉 😃
