Congrats to all the runners!!!

Finished a disappointing 4:43. I ran a 2:05 half, which I had slow passed and dealt with the huge crowds at the start but then my IT Band started bothering me around Mile 14.

The course support was excellent - as well as all the crowds - thanks to all!!

Congrats everybody.  I was cheering people on at mile 7.  I got hot just standing out there.

It's marathonfoto.com that took the pictures.  I just checked for my own and I have pre- and post-race pictures, but none from during.  I'm guessing that they're still working on sorting through and identifying all the pictures.

On another note - congrats to everyone!  Was a little hotter out there than ideal, but I didn't think it was as bad as it could have been.  I was about 10 minutes off my goal time, but pretty pleased with the race.

The last time I did the marathon was 2009 ... when did they change the fact that spectators aren't allowed on Columbus drive at all?  Personally, I thought that was great ... made it MUCH easier to get into the start corrals and move around.  Though - I didn't have anyone at the start line, so I can understand that if you did, how that might kind of suck.
