  • Just finished my first marathon the other day, u guys may have heard of it. It's the run with Donna marathon for breast cancer. Ime 17 and I did o.k 3:28. But I have to tell you, out of all of the races I have done, xc, Ragnar relays from Miami to key west, half marathons, 10ks . That was perhaps the most memorable run I have ever done. Teared us at the finish line lol

  • hahaah this is hilarious to watch, but honestly well done to them all.

  • Worried now 2012 15th April I entred as a joke and got a place.Training is going OK though.

  • I think there are a lot of people that watch this and just don't understand running.Understand one thing about a Marathon. It's all in the training, in the mindset, and the Wall. Every marathon run is different for everyone, just like every run we take is a little different. There are bad days, awesome days, and so-so days. The Wall presents something else entirely, sometimes it's just a passing nudge, other times its an all-out war that some people don't recover from.

  • @kg062007 obviously you've never ran a marathon. Try it sometime.

  • Running this race is on my bucket list.

  • great video. I know the feeling of both being insanely excited and exhausted at the finish line. I've only done 1 marathon so far, but hopefully I'll be able to experience that feeling again.

  • This reminds me of my first half marathon. I got three steps past the finish line and then fainted. Next thing I remembered was arguing with a doctor saying "YOU WILL NOT put an IV in me until I get that finisher medal!!"

  • @tripleMmagic You have to run a qualifying marathon in a certain time limit for your age and gender. One of the challenges that Boston presents is that you train your butt off to meet a time limit... and then you have to continue to train for Boston, which is one of the more difficult marathons in the US.
