Post run analysis

My blog address is http://tcrunning.blogspot.com

A little sore today but not too bad. REALLY chafed though because I forgot my body glide...what a dummy.

Well, this turned out to be my best marathon ever. Lots of great milestones here. With a time of 4:55:17, I broke the 5 hour barrier. I also broke the 12:00 min/mile pace barrier...heck, I broke 11:30 min/mile...my pace ended up being 11:16.

Now for the disappointment...I maintained an 11:00 pace for 20 miles, and could have finished in 4:46, but it took me 1:15 to do the last 6 miles...that is 12:30 per mile pace...I guess I expended so much energy up the lee bridge on mile 16, I just didn't have anything else by mile 20.

Overall, great marathon for me, but definitely could have been better.

Next stop...Shamrock.
