What a difference compared to my Marine Corps run 3 wks before. For you fellow Yanks...I earned my Thanksgiving Turkey that day, and much better, I finished the season on a great note (I just wanted to beat 4 hrs).
What would you do differently?:

Pace better....my half split was 1:56...so I ran the 2nd half 6 minutes faster than the first.

Event comments:

The Philly is a marathon race, not an event, like the Marine Corps, Boston or New York.

Performance: Good
Course: This course took me through my hometown as well as my training grounds. It was a very forgiving course (many use it as a Boston qualifier) as it was flat.
