Title: Re: The day after the marathon Post by: Lybi on February 21, 2008, 09:56:29 pm Ha ha ha ha! That was so great... It reminded me of when James ran the SGM the 1st time. We drove up to Salt Lake right after the marathon, and EVERY time we stopped for food or to get gas, there were several people (including James) hobbling around like broken zombies--most of them barefooted.

You should have seen the looks on the cashiers' faces as they saw these people come hobbling into the store - it must have looked hilarious to them. However, after my first marathon, it was more than just the day after - more like the first week after. I did much better this last time around, tho :)

Not funny at all! Great clip. It would be nice if us normal people didn't have to get up and go to work the next day or two after a marathon. It would help just to relax and sleep. The life of a marathoner! Title: Re: The day after the marathon Post by: Michelle Lowry on February 23, 2008, 11:16:26 pm These were not exaggerations but exactly how I was after my marathon. I was holding both rails on my stairs going up and down and my 7 year old son Benji asked me: "Mom, let me know when you go on the stairs, I want to watch!" He was disappointed when I starting going up and down the stairs without providing a show.

Title: Re: The day after the marathon Post by: Kim Cusick on March 27, 2008, 07:51:05 pm I have this video on my blog! I thought it was an exaggeration...until I ran my 1st marathon 3 weeks ago. I rolled around the house on my computer chair for 2 days!!!! And I LOVED every minute of that marathon. I'd do it all over again, I'd just take a week off work next time!
