Go Gonzo, Go

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Luis Gonzalez, who earned $8.25 million playing baseball last year, completed the P.F. Chang Rock ā€˜n’ Roll Arizona half-marathon in 2:16:19. That's a pace of about 10:30 per mile. "I never ran more than five miles before today," said Gonzalez.

Former San Francisco 49ers running back Roger Craig completed the full marathon in a P.R. of 3:50:45; he clocked a similar time in Chicago last October.
