Today's race had awesome weather. It was 38 at the start, which is a little cold, but there was no wind whatsoever, so that made it nice. The people at this marathon were super friendly. The fiance and I enjoyed a spaghetti dinner the night before and the townspeople were just as cool as could be and were one of the major things I liked about this race. I also liked the course, uphill the first half (not by much though) and downhill on the back. Overall a flat and fast course. Ended up setting a PR at 1:21:14. 56 seconds faster than my first half. One part I need to work on is miles 9-13.1. I hit the 10-mile mark at 1:01:40, i needed to be around 1:01:00. I need to close better too. I ended up 3rd overall and made $75 for that so I was pretty stoked!!
