cola_fan and Alex oniugnip: ultimate victorious in the Atlanta Marathon 2K6!
Finishing time: 4:18. Speedy!
It was a beautiful day, totally perfect weather. All the volunteers were super-nice, but more importantly, Laurynyourusername and Martin samarin saw us off and Laura laurapatt was waiting for us at the finish line, totally taking pictures! Aw, thanks guys :) Also, thanks to everybody else who was supportive!
We went out too fast :) We said "let's not go out too fast." We hit the first mile at a bit slower than 9-minute pace, taking our own advice... and then sped up 'til we hit the halfway point at a ridiculously too-quick 1:54. We were like "oh man, let's break 4 hours!" ... eh, you live, you learn :) And your legs seize up a bit in the process.
But still! First marathon, not bad! :)
