Brian and my sister were planning to run the Philadelphia marathon on Saturday.  Since it was so close the New York Marathon I thought I'd run the new half marathon and the hang around to cheer them in for the full marathon.
When I got to the expo, the half marathon was sold out.  When faced with the decision to run an 8K or a full marathon, I went for the full 26.2 because:
1) nice t-shirt
2) nice medal
3) I was going to be downtown the whole time anyway
4) I am a crazy person
So on Sunday I did my 2nd marathon in 14 days.  Amazingly, my time was better than Delaware and very close to my time in New York.
I survived, and I mostly had fun, but I have to say that this is a pretty bad idea overall!
