Congratulations on your marathon!Taskette,I love my Garmin Forerunner 201 - it's the best toy I have to help me be a better runner and you get to make a nifty picture of your run which is so much better than the commenorative map the marathon organizers provide.Good Going A.Maria. I'm impressed!

OMG! I didn't realize you ran the SF Nike Women's marathon. Yikes! I ran the regular SF Marathon in July but the Nike course was harder. Those hills! Ouch. I had to run that big one up from the GG Bridge but then I think we had more down, less up than you. You are a stud!

Wow, it looks like you hit the wall, then just blew right through it. Your pace was pretty consistent after hitting that difficult spot at mile 20.Great job controlling your pace. You finished pretty strong. I tend to drift off pretty badly after the 20 mile point.

How I picture myself and how I actually look like are two totally different things. It's weird seeing pictures of myself running. I'm looking and all I can think is WTF?

Do you have a garmin forerunner or is that info you get from the marathon??? I want to get a Garmin Forerunner 201 but I want to know what people think of it.

I really gotta hand it to the race photographers. They have this amazing ability to capture your body at it's worst. I'm running a marathon here, and I'm in great shape, yet the race photographers have a nack for making me look like a heffer. Me, not you. Arse holes!Where'd you get your splits? I'm interested to see mine...
