Marathon #1 is in the books – WooHoo!
I ended up with a time of 4:05:05 @ 9:21 pace. Since this was my first full marathon, this is a PR(!); though it was slower than my race plan goal, due to calf cramps in both legs on miles 17.2 to 20 and again at 24.5 to the finish. That said, I did take 3rd in my age bracket (smaller races rock!)
I’ll post a full race report later this week with all the adventurous details! Giddy up!
- Current plan: Bay Trail Marathon Training Plan
- Today’s session: Race day!
- Comments: See above…full report to follow.
Great job and 3rd place is awesome!
Thanks!
