AM  Going into this run I was a little nerves because I have not got the long runs in due to being sick for a few weeks before the race. I had alot of fun running this race and had a verygood friend running with me and other friends that I have ran past marathons with.  I wanted to use this run to see where I am at as far a my fitness and what I need to improve on before Boston and I definitely got what I was looking for.  This race was very challenging over the last two hours and just had tokeep my focus and stick with it but had a great time and was something I had not done before and will do again.  I missed the top 5 by 1 lap

Great job, I didn't know you changed your mind to do this. Glad you got out of this what you wanted.

Thanks Jeff, It was kind of a last min thing and just decided to go for it and I was very glad I did it, I wasn't that far out of shape as I thought I was.
