My official finish time for the NJ Marathon was 4:11:21. I wanted to come in under 4 hours but I am pleased with that. More than that, I am pleased that I stopped my Garmin at 4:11:25, so I was 4 seconds off of the chip time. I'm usually a bonehead when it comes to stopping my Garmin, even in the shortest of races. I think the fact that I was 4 seconds off in a marathon means I am maturing as a runner (it does, right?). Here are some of my race pics from Brightroom, the official race photographer (I think the last one is my favorite):
Am I the only one that got a porta potty shot or what? Way to go Brightroom, I will cherish that one forever. As a side note, this is pre-race. I cruised for 4:11 hours without having to make a pit stop, which is also a small success for me. I think I have my hydration strategy nailed for the next marathon.

OMG ROFLMAO!!!
You scored a potty pic from the official race photogs!! How'd you get so lucky? You did order that, right??
Fourth pic - holy shredded quads!
That is a RIOT. HAHAHAHA. The photo any runner would want framed for all to see.
You lucked out with all those good photos and the porta-potty pic is beyond compare!! I'd totally hang that on my wall if I was you. Don't know if you'll check my blog but the 5K on the 23rd is http://www.trocrf.org/5k.php. Would be cool if you could get over here to do it.
port o potty.. Classic!!
that is the 1st one I have ever seen like that.
lololololol!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not sure if I've posted yet on your blog, but this one surely I couldn't resist!!!!
Port-a-Poty race pic, hahahahahahahahahahahahahah! That is so funny!!
Oh, and congrats on the great race!
That picture of the port o potty is just so hilarious. I have never seen anything like it!
I'm thinking making maybe Portland for a fall marathon. Or maybe a small local marathon - but its in August which I fear is not enough time!
That is great! Love the port o pot shot!!

Must be your brother ???
Unbelievable professional photog to take you a pix coming out of Port a Potty... KODAK MOMENT !!!
Great marathon time!!! WOO!!!
Last photo - priceless!!
What in the hell was the photographer thinking? Was he monitoring the porta-potties, camera poised, waiting to get some good shots? Wouldn't it be funny to have that picture framed or made into a plaque with your finish time and everything on it? Funny if it wasn't so damn expensive. Stinkin brightroom!
ROFLMAO HAHAHAH Duuuddee the pot one is the best. Man I'd get that baby framed! I'm trashy like that :P
You could say that it's better to be caught at the John ... then in the John!
Cool deal, most runners want pictures of them smiling and levitating, but you got a true classic!
