I'm a finisher

4:40:00 or so.

I still don't have the final time because I didn't want to wait around for final results to be posted. I'll write more later -- now it's off to an opera in the park with J2E.

So I just got my final time: 4:40:51. A little slower than I thought. I placed 2,893 out of 4,918 runners. That's the 41st percentile. Not too impressive. Interestingly, I placed higher (45th percentile) in my age bracket (Men 25-29). My theory is that a lot of people in that age bracket go out way too fast and end up dying too soon -- face it, no 25-year-old man wants to run a marathon over 4:00:00 -- where as the field as a whole is smarter and paces themselves.
