Yesterday was the New York City Marathon. Last year there was a lot of hype surrounding Lance Armstrong at the race, which was his first attempt at 26.2 miles. This year there was almost no hype, and he quietly finished in 2:46 to take thirteen minutes off of his time from last year. He’s getting closer to his potential, but he could probably take about thirteen more minutes off of his time if he really wanted to. He said, “I think I came in better prepared. I feel better than I did last year leaving here. Last year I had no idea what to expect with 26.2 miles (42.16 km), and I paid for it.” Click here to see the full article. Congratulations to him and to all the finishers of the race.
