Congrats, Perry, for finishing. I can’t wait to read your comments about the actual marathon.

And, just for the record, that’s bad booth behavior from the Nutrition Bar chick. Seriously, you’re a potential consumer of her product so she should be listening to what you didn’t like about it in order to improve her bar -not tell you that’s rude – that’s rude!!

I had one of those foul nutrition bars and a pot of black tea. I meant to eat a bowl of cereal but I forgot.

3:59 while juggling in 88 degree sun-baked heat? Unbelievable! What do you eat for breakfast?

I was the ride that interrupted you blogging. My bad. Anyway, like Derek I was only able to pass the dude in the Elvis suit along the way. *If* I ever attempt another marathon I hope it’s under 80F.

Congratulations on your race. I would have loved to have seen you juggling, but you were way ahead of me . I only got to see Elvis running in a full long-sleeved suit in the Chicago heat

Congratulations on finishing — from everything I’ve read, it sounds like that was just brutal experience. And under those conditions a 3:59:00 finishing time is something to be proud of. I hope that you’re well, that you recover quickly, and that you give us a report of the experience when you’re ready.

Wow, Perry, looks like you were one of the few runners to actually finish this race … and you wre joggling! What a feat. I think you broke the world record for fastest joggling marathon in 88-degree temps. Looking forward to hearing about it … and the rest of your nutrition bar story.
