Marathon Signs

Just thought this was a fun post from Buzzfeed. Sure, some of these signs are a little overplayed at marathons, but some of them are really great :)

I still think Bill and my sign from NYC Marathon 2010 was the best. We calculated how many calories you burn in a marathon (on average) and how many calories are in a beer (on average) and our sign said:

26.2 miles = 2224 calories = 14.4 beers!

I wish I had a picture of it because it got a lot of laughs and high fives. Its out there somewhere on the blogosphere though, because a fellow running friend told me he saw it posted :)
