Comments:

Stayed with the 3:10 pace group for the first 18 miles. Around that point I realized I wasn't going to peter out and would qualify, so I sort of surged ahead. Met this guy at mile 20 and talked with him for a while, then with my dad for a half mile at mile 25, and finally a sprint for the finish. Overall, _the_ best marathon I've ever run!

What would you do differently?:

Maybe next time I'll run a little ahead of the 3:10 group =)
