    Congratulations!! You are 26.2 MILES STRONGER!! YOU ARE A MARATHONER!!

    Finish time is irrelevant, you crossed the finish line, you earned the medal, that's what counts. There is a group in the States (some members here in Europe) called, The Marathon Maniacs (http://www.marathonmaniacs.com/) and some of them walk/run or powerwalk, and they are serious marathoners!! It's all good, you know what it takes, YOU GOT IT!! It's amazing what it does for your sense of self-esteem. Once you run a marathon, nothing seems impossible anymore!! ;)
