NYC Marathon

Notes

Humidity- 49%

Went through just about every emotion. Was 30 seconds off pace at 5, 10, 15K, and the half mark. At 30K I was a minute off my pace and the wheels slowly came off there. I never really hit the wall but my slowest mile by far was 24 (9:20 something). 1st 10K was run in 46:31 and last 10K was "run" in 55:02.

Take aways- Boston is tough to get into for a reason. Need to drop weight and get in a huge base. 150-200 miles per months just won't cut it for what I want. 250-300 needs to become the baseline.

14mph headwind and hills make this a very tough course.
