I finished. It hurt more than anything I've ever done. I would take 20 deer crashes to 1 marathon anyday. Actually probably not since I would never be able to replace my bike 20 times. But seriously, it sucked. And I can't wait for my next one. I learned a lot, like... my body doesn't want to run past 17 miles.. I can get really dehydrated from running for 4+ hours... cramps suck... and getting passed by old people who seem to by flying really isn't depressing when one can hardly move. So yeah, the 4 hour goal was quickly forgotten around mile 17. I finished the first half in 1:58.. so that made me happy.. but I couldn't keep it up. But it is ok, I believe that if I train correctly, and regularly for the next one I'll be able to do leaps and bounds better. But yeah... I'm going to go take some more advil and pass out some more. Take it easy..
Later
Oh, you want to know my time.. well I finished under 5 hours. Just barely. And by just barely I mean by a few minutes. Yeah, I know.. depressing, but I finished.

Congratulations on finishing!
You know, the course record for the Hog Eye Marathon is around 2:55? That means the course is ridiculously hard.
That is true, or that perhaps no really fast people come and run it. You should still do it. Then I won't have to be so ashamed about my time.
did they have a special category for people who got run over by deer???
No, but they totally should. I hope the people passing me noticed that nice bruises and sores. If not, well.. I could totally take them in a bike crash contest.
i think that it would suck to win the deertarded category. that's sort of like being in the special olympics for people who get their asses kicked by herbivores.
Well I might be "deertarded" as you put it... but... well... shit. How can you respond to something like that? I got nothing.
