Paris marathon. Excellent weather, not so excellent organisation (several falls along the way (none by me) because of unmarked curbs in the middle of streets). My plan was to run together with the 3.15 pace group until 10 ks and then ease off, but still finish under 3.30. I lost the 3.15 pacers shortly after 7 ks, since the pace did not feel comfortable. I felt fine until about 32 kilometer mark, after which it was a bit of a torture, but I persevered.
Split times:
5k 23:44
10k 23:54 47:38
15k 24:01 1:11:39
21.1k 28:40 1:40:19
25k 18:34 1:58:53
30k 24:07 2:23:00
35k 25:14 2:48:14
42.2k 37:52 3:26:06
The goal of under 3:30 achieved, which is good.
