Comments:

The run felt great, especially the first 13 miles. A little demoralizing to see the half-marathoners head to the finish line when I was just at the halfway point. But, the runners were great and very supportive.
What would you do differently?:

Run faster!!!
Post race
Warm down:

Walking--lots of walking; light spin on Sunday (45 minutes)

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Need to train at higher MPW--incorporate more speed work.

Event comments:

My first marathon and it was awesome! I cannot wait to keep training and get faster.

Performance: Good
Course: Excellent location for a first marathon--very scenic, although limited on fans. The course was a little too flat--my quads are screaming due to the lack of variety in terrain. Overall, it was great--especially the cold beers and hot chili at the end.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
