i missed it, unfortunately i misjudged my water intake (it wasn’t warm) and paid the price at 30km. I’m pretty sure it was water because i took on 3 cups at 32km and another 3 cups at 35. At 39km i was turning over my fastest pace all race right to the finish. I need to figure that out for next season!

For sure. Something to consider is tracking sweat rate every few weeks even as it gets cooler. Knowing what you are losing per hour can go a long way. You won’t make it all up, but you can keep fluid losses manageable.

I got one at Chicago. First race in a new age group was awfully nice! Will look to improve the buffer in the spring but feels good to have the pressure off early.

I ran my first road marathon last week. 2:57:19. Not sure if it’s good enough to qualify but I’m hoping to improve on that time with a spring marathon and give my self a bit more cushion for a BQ.
