Lance Armstrong is the Man

How would you like to do your first marathon in under 3 hours. Ya, me too! The quote from the article gave me some solace as I finished the marathon in 4 hours and 50 minutes and could barely walk across the finish line too.

Armstrong’s time was 2 hours, 59 minutes and 36 seconds. His shirt soaked in sweat, he virtually walked the last couple of steps to the finish line. He shuffled into a post-race news conference, his right shin heavily taped.

I guess it is all relative – here you have a super athlete struggling to walk across the finish line under 3 hours and many others struggle at 5 hours. That is what is so cool about running.
