Comments:

Maybe started out a little too slow. But it was my first marathon so wanted to do my best at not going out too fast and wanted to be able to hold my pace. I couldn't hold the pace in the last 10km. lost about 30" per km. I was felling fit enough, but the legs had had it.

What would you do differently?:

I followed my race plan so that was good. It was my first marathon so I'll pretty satisfied with the overall result. Wanted to get under 3h30. 3h33 is not far off. I think I would have made it if I had started out a little faster.
