As stated above, the key to success is "sweat" and "mentorship." Here is the photo in it's entirety. What you did not see above is the "orange arm" almost pulling me through the finish line. A close, long time friend was excited when I decided to run the marathon. While he did not have time in his schedule to train that particular year for a marathon, he committed to making "me" successful. He put together a "marathon team" to run the marathon with me so I would have a different member of the team run "every step" of the way with me. Additionally, he ran the last 10K with me, himself ... PULLING ME THROUGH THE FINISH LINE IN JUST UNDER 4:50!
