Subject: RE: IMFL watching thread>>"Scott Benjamin must be hurting too. I expected him in by now"
Things got a little ugly for me about 5 miles into the run. I was on track for my goal of a 4 hour marathon but I started getting back spasms and pain shooting down my leg. Stretching didn't seem to help so I just focused on moving forward. Lots of walking, with some running when the pain would subside. Did manage to run the last 4 miles.
Finished an hour over my goal, but still managed a PR.
I recognized Joel from his avatar, and he looked great on the run.
Congrats to all the BT'ers who've made it in so far. I'm going to hobble back down to the finish line now.
Thanks for all the support.
