I Ran It! Top 5 Things I Learned by Running a Marathon

I ran it, and I can't say I'd want it to have happened any other way. I'm proud of the time I accomplished for my first race, despite some ridiculously windy race conditions.

How to stalk my race: 
I'm #60100. I'm wearing a purple hat, purple tshirt that says "ABBY," possibly a green jacket, black capris, and purple shoes. Lots of purple. I start around 10:55am and expect to finish after 3:30pm.
