Comments:

The run went amazingly well. I was not really trained specifically for a marathon and had not tapered at all and was experimenting with going out at a higher heart rate than I normally would if I were really serious. Everything came together and I ran a slight negative split, my second half was about two minutes faster than my first.

Event comments:

I guess I really only rate the race as average because it isn't a particularly good course. It's pretty flat but not really a PR course per-se. If you are going to come to New Mexico there are better marathons. Top one is the Run the Caldera trail marathon and the next would be the New Mexico Marathon but that was canceled this year so I don't know what's up with it.
