Notes

1:49:05- 1:54:40..........Nice, sunny morning..was concerned that it would get warm later on in the race. i was coming off two good marathons with both negative split halves...my goal was a sub 3:30 with a negative split but also knew it may be tough since i had run a marathon the weekend before. i felt good the first half. i ran with Mike Cover and Linda Reilly most of the first half. i could sense it wasn't going to be a negative split at around mile 14-15. i gradually slowed down and began the run/walk around mile 23. i pushed through it and finished my 50th marathon. overall, one to remember. driving to the marathon, i turned around at fort hunter because i realized i forgot my visor and sunglasses. i then hopped on to rt. 83 instead of taking front st. to rt. 83 and then my updated gps was showing me a different direction and had me arrived 8 mins before the start. the gps then changed to a more respectable 25 min ETA before the start....another this was that around mile 2, i realized my car key was missing from my pocket. after the race, i located it in the grass where i had gone to the bathroom behind gym.
