This was going to be a training run for Eugene, but I've been plagued with injuries and decided that this would probably be my marathon for the year. The great thing about running in New Orleans is that you are constantly reminded not to take it too seriously. I ran, I visited with volunteers, I drank beer where it was offered, I took pictures, I visited with other runners and had a heck of a lot of fun for 5 hours and 33 minutes!
