Congrats on qualifying! I was at the race (first marathon) and I was completely under trained (only 5 weeks) and under educated about the distance. At mile 18 I bonked and finished in 3:59. If you'd be willing, I'd really like to get some tips from you. Maybe even do some training together. I'm 24 and really want to do well at this distance one day. Let me know if we can work something out. Again, nice job on qualifying.
Hey man! Thanks for the congrats! Anything I can do to help, let me know! Just e-mail me at steviec7@gmail.com. I, too, bonked on my first marathon in '05!
