Good for you, Aqua, running the LA Marathon. I ran it back in 1987 (yikes! Am I getting old or what?). I'd previously run the Fiesta Bowl Marathon in AZ in 3.5 hours. I "assumed" the LA Marathon, being run in the city, was fairly flat and never bothered to look at the course. Well, it turned out that the first half was, for the most part, up hill (I have no idea what the course is like this year). By mile 21 I was gassed and, for the first time ever in a race, I had to walk about a half mile before I could complete the course running. That was my slowest marathon ever at around 4.5 hours.

Now that ELTP has allowed me to be financially free, I plan to get back into marathoning. I ran two half marathons in 2012, but am terribly out of shape now (for me, anyhow), so it'll take a while, but maybe someday I'll join you for a marathon in Hawaii (but you can run ahead of me since I'm fairly slow now).

Don't worry, be happy!
