After 18 weeks of training, I’ve finally finished my first ever marathon. I crossed the finish line with an official time of 4:30:20. I was part of about 16000+ people that finished. The weather was so cold, my shirt and cap was covered with frost from the frozen sweat.
Like I’ve said before, I didn’t have any time goal for this race so I’m pretty happy with my finishing time. I still crossed the finish line running even though my legs were already feeling like lead. Running through all the Disney Parks and seeing the Disney characters cheering you on was indeed a fun experience. But I can’t say this race was easy for me. I faced some tough challenges too along the way.
I will post some more race details later. In the meantime, I will have to go ice my calves.
