The Results are in! Now this may come as a shock to some, but I didn't take first place. I'm sorry to have to report that. I was close though, really close. He only had me by a couple hours. I did finish strong however, and ahead of the pack. Out of a total of 22,359 finishers, I was 8617. In the mens division, I was 6066, and in my age bracket, I finished 780. Wow! All that with a camera in hand. I'll take it!
You can view all of the results, as well as pictures, on the LA Marathon website. My bib number is 10645. They have great links that show you the standing on the coarse, and compare you to other runners. www.lamarathon.com
I would really like to thank everyone again for being so supportive and generous through this. It has been such an amazing experience and so rewarding. It was shocking to me to find out how many people are effected by Diabetes in some way, most very close to home. The statistics about Diabetes are frightening, but seeing the progress we are making, and the desire people have shown to change is encouraging.
I am still receiving donations from people, and I thank you all so much for that. As I said before, the Donate button on the left side of the blog page will remain there, and we will continue to make donations as they come in. If you would like to send a check, I will be happy to e-mail you my address. Our first official donation will be made this week. Its going to be a great one.
Thank you all again so much. You have touched the lives of me, and my family so much by being a part of this.
