Notes

Blue Ridge Marathon. Walked the big inclines, ran most of the rest, with walk breaks spread throughout.

Overall: 8

Enjoyment: 8 - I loved the race. Well put together, and fun

Experience: 8 - Excellent weather. Great support. Great time.

Effort: 9 - The hills were TOUGH. I wasn't expecting the last hills to be so hard. About mile 23 I was dead walking, got some food in me, and kicked back to running most of the last two miles. Everyone else I saw were walking.

Pain: 3 - Pushing it up the first mountain gave me some ITB twinges. The continued coming down the mountain, but went away while taking it slowly up the next. Other than that it was only fatigue. No issues at all with my inner knee thingy. I wore my knee brace. It kept riding up.
