Run
Comments: Well, I ran well through 21 miles. At the half way mark I was 3 minutes ahead of my target pace which was a big mistake. I should have slowed down right then however I just kept going at the same pace which I payed for during the last 4.5 miles of the race. Lesson learned! All in all I can't be too disappointed as this was my first marathon. I was hoping to qualify for Boston but it wasn't meant to be this year! What would you do differently?: Take in more fluids and watch my pace much more closely. Post race
Warm down: Not much as I couldn't hardly walk. What limited your ability to perform faster: Experience in pacing a longer race. I have the half marathon down and this was my first marathon and it was a rough one! Event comments: Very nice and well run event. It may be getting a little big for the available venue though.
