Boston Baked my Beans
Originally posted April 17, 2012
Ok. It’s still a little early the day after the 2012 Boston Marathon. That’s the best headline I could come up with.
It was hot and grueling, but I made it. This was the most challenging marathon I have ever run since my first marathon. I was completely spent at the end and had nothing left to “run it in”.
It was all I could do to run down Boylston Street. When I turned the corner off of Hereford Street onto Boylston the thought of walking it in actually crossed my mind.
My legs ached and the finish line looked like it was a mile away. I knew it was only about a quarter-mile away and there was no way I was going to walk the last quarter-mile of this thing. In a flash the thought of walking was gone.
Since I’m at work today and they expect me to get something done, and I’m a little tired, I’ll post my recap in a day or two.
Run well my Friends,
Andy

I am so impressed!
It was probably the toughest marathon so far.
Congratulations! I look forward to hearing how it went. XOX!
Nice Job Andy, I watched the race on tv. decided not to run that day but did ride the bike for a short 12 miler. I can remember how challenging the 10k’s were in the heat of the summer and could not imagine running 26.2 in that heat.
Mike,
It was draining, grueling and brutal. I’m glad I didn’t defer, and I’m glad it’s over! I’ll be posting my race post-op tonight. I appreciate your comments.
Nice!!! Ill be checking back for the extended version recap. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
