'Biggest Loser': Dane finished that marathon

Thanks to reader etucker for the heads up: Remember a few months ago when Dane Patterson from The Biggest Loser was getting a lot of guff for being portrayed as having completed a marathon when that's not quite what happened? And then he wanted to make up for it by doing the Country Music Marathon in Nashville?

Well, he did complete that race. It was this past weekend. You can read more about it at OK Magazine. (Which, by the way, totally fails to address the controversy part of things.) There's a little more info at Runner's Web, too.
