What did Jacob do?

He ran the freakin' Boston Marathon yesterday and has a very informative blog about his experiences leading up and through the big day. Congrats on finishing. I've run some of my 6 marathons at a less than ideal weight but no where near what you had to carry, which is why I won't run #7 until I lose 20+ pounds. I got lazy after #6 in October and am just getting back into it again. I know all about the haters as I've been running forever and know plenty of them personally; I probably would have thought 'What the Hell is he doing here?' if I saw you at the marathon start not knowing your story but I'm glad you were able to finish and hope you keep it up, losing those pounds, whether it's through running or some other exercise. Don't you feel awesome afterwards?
