Comments:

Went better than expected!
What would you do differently?:

I had been suffering from IT band syndrome from overtraining back in October, so recent training was non existent. I would only do about 8-10 miles a week. So, I guess, I would train less so I could train more.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked back to mile 25 to meet up with my fiance so we could cross the finish line together. It was her first marathon, and I was her running coach, so it was a big deal to finish with her. (she did great by the way)

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of training.

Event comments:

I love this race!
