Hey Eli! Thank you for visiting my graveyard — I am going to start posting again and hope to be fast like you one day. If you did see me, I had that really bright yellow jersey and would have been limping. You have to come back next year and regain the title!

Hey great job speedy. Funny but I was the defending champion at the oc marathon and went for a 2nd try this last one you did. I just choked and dropped out at mile 21, I think. I was in 4th place but didn’t think it was worth killing myself if I wasn’t going to win let alone place so I dropped out to preserve my body. I walked back a bit to get picked up and saw a few women run by. I wonder if I saw you but I don’t know since I didn’t know u then.

Thanks Running L. – yes we are still on for NYC! The rest is nice but it is horrible when all I need is a small run to feel better and I can’t!

So sorry about the injury. Never realized it was that bad. Hoping you would come back strong. I strongly believe though that it might be leading you to another direction, “triathlon” maybe?

You are mentally tough. For sure you’ll be back stronger. Wish you the best.

You are seriously going to break a sub 3hr marathon when you get back. You are simply incredible!!!!

You ran a 3:16 with a fractured metatarsal? Wow! That’s incredible! Sorry to hear about your injury though. I have no doubt you’ll recover from this and run better and faster marathons. Good luck in the rest of your recovery! We’re still on for NYC, right ? =) Heal well!

You are so tough and inspirational!

Almost PRing on a broken foot after struggling through the last 6 miles…I am seriously so excited to see the times that you will post after you heal!
