Thanks!! It was really awesome. There were some really sad moments, seeing people drop out, seeing people on stretchers being put into ambulances, etc... that has to be really heartbreaking... to train for so long and then end up being defeated not by the distance but by the heat. So that was pretty sad to have to see. But we finished and it was awesome, and I feel great!

You know, Brian's dad made it a life goal to run a marathon in each of the fifty states, in addition to running at least one marathon per continent (including Antarctica). So far, he hasn't gotten to all fifty states, but he has run one on all the continents exect for Australia.

I think that would be an awesome life goal, personally. I'm not necessarily saying I'm going to set that one for myself just yet... but it's been in the back of my mind, for certain. And hell, if I come visit you in New Zealand, I might as well run a marathon there. :o)

I will come visit you eventually, I promise. :o) It just might take a while for the moneys to be available.
