  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: Well all in all for my first Marathon, I'd say I did well for myself. It's been a really hard road to get here. I've only been running for a year and 8 months, and have come this far is awesome. The 18 weeks of training did me good, and prepared me for the 26.2 miles. I just didn't expect to be in the Med-tent after. I think If I had slowed down a bit in the beginning, and hydrated better, it could have been avoided. It really was a great first marathon experience, except the end. The weather was just perfect, along with the great views.
