Channel 5 Interview After Boston Marathon

RFME.org
This is a quick interview that Channel 5 did right after I finished the 2010 Boston Marathon. Right after the interview my legs cramped up really bad because they actually interviewed me for about 2 minutes. I kept the Kevin Youkilis portion on just to show that I got an earlier position on the newscast than he did! lol

This was my fourth marathon in less than 1 year. Twenty Two (22) months earlier the most I had ever run in the previous 30 years was ~10 yards. Last year, after losing 113 pounds, I ran the Boston Marathon in 4 hours 45 minutes.

This year, with grade 1-2 tearing of my calf (soleus) muscle in January and very little running for the last 4 months, I ran Boston in 4:19, besting my old time by 26 minutes. Knowing I wouldn't get my Sub 4 hour marathon after Heartbreak Hill, I shot for the date of the marathon (ie April 19th). :)
