I suppose if you must be addicted to something, running is a good thing.  Unlike myself, who 
is addicted to sugar, and has a whole store full of Easter candy at 75% off, just 
SCREAMING my name.

I'm extremely impressed that you could run 13.1 in the first place.  I'm sure I could walk it, 
but it would take a great deal longer than 2 hours!  It would probably take at least 4 hours, 
and I'd be a total cripple for several days afterward.

Good for you for doing something YOU love to do, and taking the time for yourself.  Next 
time, lock the kids and husband out of the house and take a long bath, or read, or whatever 
quiet calm activity soothes your mind, after the race as an extra-special reward!
