Great job ABC and Chief!
For me, I wrote this on Facebook:
Quote:
I finished my marathon! The time was not as good as I had hoped, I had a very rough final 8 miles. No matter how much I read ahead of time, it never prepared me for how physically and mentally tough the race was. I still am very proud that I can call myself a marathoner and will use this as a stepping stone for the next one!
My net time ended up 4:45, I ran the first half in just under 2 hours but the back half of the race did me in.

I uploaded the run to strava so you all can see how epically I melted down 
My suffer score was 769.. My TRIMP was 693, which is a new record by almost 200. I pretty much did everything that you aren't supposed to do in a marathon. Started too fast, Cadence too low and did not realize how it was spiraling out of control until it was too late.
The last three miles I really had a hard time putting one foot in front of another. In fact, my last two miles took me 33 minutes.
