Comments:

I was on a sub 4 hour pace with 5 miles to go and hit the wall.
What would you do differently?:

I didn't drink enough fluids early in the race and that doomed me in the end.

Event comments:

The water stops were plentiful, but the early ones were poorly located. The first couple were on both sides of a narrow road and that ended up being a choke point for runners.
