I'm still a few pounds away from dropping below "obese" to merely "overweight," but I completed my second marathon today. Dallas White Rock in the cold and rain. Finished in 5:04:45. More than 30 minutes faster than last year.
Burned 4434 calories. Right now, my net calories for the day is still only 68. I don't think I'm going to get even close to my allotted number.

Wow, that's great!!! I'm training for a half marathon and as the training runs are getting longer, I am full of admiration for people who put in the time and energy to do a full marathon, that is fantastic.
Well done!0 -
That is SOO awesome!! Super duper job! I wish to be just like you in a couple of years. My goal next year is to run a half marathon.. or maybe a couple of half marathons. Right now, I'm easily doing 10k's!0

I second this whole-heartedly!0 -
Definitely badass! I guess I'm going to do my marathon. The only reason I'm kind of held back is I believe that I weight too much (190lbs) and might do some injury to my knees due to distance. But if you're able to do it, I'm inspired now0
