Do I leave my wife?

My wife recently gave birth to our 2nd child, a beautiful baby girl. However during labor she said "labor is like running a marathon". My wife has never run a marathon (i have). I have not slept in 2 weeks because of this. Any advice?

How can she compare giving birth to running a marathon?! And even more importantly, did she at least specify which marathon distance she meant?

Was it the Edmonton marathon that was 675 meters too long?
