This photo selection is based on me realizing that my final time at Sunday's marathon was 30 seconds off the final time at this 2005 (Chicago) Marathon... although we added 3-4 minutes Sunday by getting a little lost. In contrast, Sunday I finished soaking wet, ripped my number almost in half, looked like a disheveled mess... then got soup on my shirt (delicious soup) and tip-toed around barefoot post race. We had a lot of laughs... Doctor D and I passed each other about 6 times... "hi honey."

This was the photo Hockomock Swamp Rat magazine ran for my Ratdossier profile... a tremendous honor. I'll try to attach it somehow to my blog, but need to ask Double J how to do that. HSR makes me laugh out loud... humorous and witty.

What's Dr. D's excuse?

Great point... it must be a "goon" thing then

That is a great picture! I thought when I saw it in the Rat that it was a professional shot, not a post marathon pic.

Wow!

I also saw a rat...out by my garage yesterday. Gross. I need to move out of the hood.

27 miles is a great warmup for Jay in July. Wanna join me? :)
