So here are a few pictures from the week. First off is a group pic the night before at Talbott St. in Indy, with Donna, Dana, Brenda and me getting drunk, then a seven-gurl group pic that Donna took late one night, then the chairtie that Donna put me in, followed by a strict hogtie with Joy Turner, then Julie trying out the gasmask for the first time. After Julie is Dana, whom I wrapped up in plastic and black electrical tape. She zoned out quite nicely! Then there’s Torrie tied and molested a little by me, followed by Dana preparing me for my pre-birthday spankings (which were wicked and left me nicely bruised!) and finally Tina getting some payback, tied up on the floor and teased with the Hitachi. Enjoy!

Then, just a couple days after that it’ll be time for the TEASE party, as mentioned below. There Will Be Birthday Cake!

Granted, I didn’t run the entire thing. I was doing the “run, walk, run” technique, endorsed by Olympian Jeff Galloway, where I walked for one minute every half mile. These little rests make a huge difference and allow some time to recover, until you hit mile 20 or so and things just become generally painful! But there’s amazing support from the crowds, with people everywhere cheering you on and lots of bands along the way jamming out.

It was a great day and I’d have to say that anyone who’s moderately active could probably do the same thing with maybe six months of moderate training (which is basically what I did, and not even as consistently as I should have). I never thought I’d be able to complete a marathon so I’m walking on air tonight, and insanely sore! Also a bit concerned with how I’ll feel in the morning when I try to drag my legs out of bed!
