More marathons...

Right, as if one marathon wasn't enough I went and ran the marathon in Amsterdam. Cold weather, shitty legs, low energy, and not ideal motivation led me to finish in 4:42 hrs. A piss poor half hour slower than Berlin and pain for the next couple of weeks. The only reason I finished was that I ended up raising €1400- for a charity in India. Even the last kilometer was too far for me to run. Unbelievable, the stupidity of myself still astounds me every time.
But I'm back to training for some half marathons for next year. Maybe I'll run another marathon in a couple of years, Berlin, London, and New York are on my list. However, first I have to forget how much it hurts to run a marathon, and be better prepared for the next one....
