Very Big Man Finishes the Boston Marathon!
Do you remember a few months back I told you about Jacob, the guy from Wisconsin who weighed 438 pounds and was determined to lose some weight and run the Boston Marathon? Well, I just found out that he did it.
He was DEAD LAST, as he puts it, clocking in at 9 hours and 40 minutes.
The best line of his report:
I’m pretty sure that by the time I finished, the Kenyans were already back in Africa celebrating.
Read his report and see all the photos!

Ah ha! So you’re where I found his site. I was reading his report and it suddenly occured to me that I had no idea how I found his site in the first place.

Like my mother always told me, “It’s not whether you win or lose… it’s how you play the game.”
