Goal was to run at least 2 marathons in 12 hours, starting at 7 PM. Ended up running my first marathon at 4:55, finishing at 11:55 PM. Immediately has severe cramps and muscle spasms, followed with heat exhaustion and the chills. Got massage, ice, fluids, and sat in the car with heated seats and heater on full. Was going to give up and go home but wife refused to take me. After an 1.5 hours I got out of the car and ran my second marathon in 5:10. Had to run an additional .8 miles to make it official 2nd marathon. :)
