Comments:

good run.
Picked up a water bottle on the route. should have brought my own to carry. a little weak gatorade would have been good. drank the cytomax on the course and one gu that was towards the end.
was pretty much winging this one because of the lack of recent training.
race actually went pretty well, especially with the circumstances (little running since HIM 5 weeks ago). mentally good. Just kept going. walked only at drink stations. Tried to keep near the 4:15 marathon pace group.
What would you do differently?:

um, train some more. bring own nutrition.
Post race
