Motivational Comment From Co-Worker

I just had to share the below conversation with one of my co-workers (Rich)

Rich: So you and Christine are running 26 miles

Carrie: Correction, 13.1 miles.  We are only doing the half.

Rich: Thats good.  Did you know that the first marathon runner in history died after finishing the 26 mile run.

Carrie: No Rich, I didn't know that.

...The conversation continued with Rich explaining when the first marathon was and the history behind it.  Apparently it was during ancient Grecian times.
