Great job Celeste. Whether its your only one or your 50th, I think every marathon is quite an accomplishemnt.

[Bombay Chutney]

Wow - that's great.  Congrats!

Congrats Celeste, but why didnt you keep running when you saw Rhett at the finish line?

[markie]

Isnt that quicker than GGW?
 
 Its always nice when he gets losses, even more so to a girl.

he's got the smoker's handicap, though...
 
 anyway...thanks you guys...I feel happy about it, considering my goal, decided on the day before, was to try at do 4:40 or better...

Congrats to her!  Did she like the marathon?  I think i might do that one next year.  I love chicago, and i love running..so it could be good times.  I'm running Richmond next month.

Malo, you should do it...it's flat and generally cool weather...
 
 The people in the neighborhoods are great...we had gay guys dancing to "Get Off" in Boystown and Polish girls in traditional dresses and a polka band in the Polish neighborhood...and lots more.
 
 I used to live there...so I kept seeing restaurants I'd eaten at...

Rhett dances?

[ggw]

That's right.
 
 I bet I was #1 in the Hipster Chain Smokers class last year.
 
 Based on how my training runs were going, I think I would have easily shaved at least 30 minutes off my time this year.  However, I haven't been able to run for the past two weeks so things aren't looking good.  Oh well.  There's always next year.
 
 
 Congrats Celeste.

Man, that's not too far off from Ferris Bueller.

My best marathon time was in 1992 NYC Marathon, before they used the chips that allow them to calculate what your real time was.
 
 I'll never know my true best time.
