Notes
EP Marathon. Win.
Pretty much averaged 6:00s for the first 20. first couple were a little slower but only 6:20ish. Motorcycles took me on a wrong turn at about 22 and added about a 1/4mile, total end distance was 26.6 so somewhere there was some extra steps. Started to bonk hard at 23, ran out of water and was having a hard time getting a significant amount at aid station. Stoped at 24 & 25 aid station and took 4 cups or water/gatorade but should have just brought more bottles to put in the belt. Bringing more refills for next time. Waist belt was awesome, no stopping or slowing at any point until I started to stop at aid stations. Couldn't imagine doing a marathon without it.
Was hitting 7:00-7:30 pace for miles 24&25 and just praying I could hold out til the finish. Just a grind from there to the finish, started to feel a bit better though with the extra aid at the stops and was cruising for the last 1/4 mile or so.
