Comments:

I didn't intend to run as hard as I did but this race had a clydesdale division so I went ahead and ran hard to see how I could do. I ended up placing 6th in a field of 82. Not bad considering I did a hundred miler just three weeks ago.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. I ended up running my 4th fastest marathon at Hartford.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Probably too many miles in my legs but this wasn't intended to be an A race anyway.

My training was taking off. I had never felt stronger. I was making bigger strides than I ever had. I was stronger and faster than I had imagined myself ever being.

I can't say it enough, the feeling of treading water for that final minute, helicopters over head, Mike Riley's Iron-voice over the P.A. - just awesome. I cannot believe I'm here!
