    Awesome job! I finished my first (and last) 1/2 marathon in 2.5 hours just last month. 2.5 was my goal, the cramping, spasming calves were not part of that goal. Keep going. Do one for me. I just have no desire!!

    I've had back problems in the past and wondered if I could ever do a marathon (a few years away yet!) but you've shown me that it is completely possible.

    Congrats on finishing your marathon, losing 100+ lbs and having the courage and motivation to do both. You're my hero!
