    @TheMrWobbly, what a wonderful, wonderful report. You're a champ! (You'd come so far already . . . then added this 26.2 to that trip.) I may be a total stranger, but this post truly makes me feel very, very happy.

    I particularly noticed in your report that there were a few bumps along the way to the race (eating plans, fueling at the race, the dog issue . . . ). Many people would not be able to stop those bumps from getting in their head, but you just got on with what you intended to accomplish. More great things ahead for you, I predict.

    So inspiring!

    I feel like a proud momma. It’s just so stinking awesome to see friends here succeed, and this was a true success!

    Loving your shirt and cheering squads.

    And good grief! You raised a lotta dough! Go, you, twice over!!!!!

    Congratulations on finishing your first marathon. You learned an important lesson: even with the best training, race day can and usually will add some completely different complications. The important part is you kept going. Hurray!
