Running race 3:10:51 [5] 42.2 km (4:31 / km) +40m4:30 / km shoes: Asics Gel-Speedstar 4 2009
Was aiming for 3:10, managed fairly even pacing, losing only 3:33 in the last half. Ran with the 3:10 pace group, which stated off with about 30 people, by 17 miles or so, the pace group had dissolved to myself and the pacer. Got some personal coaching, until I dropped off just before 24 miles. Happy with the result. 1 second slower than the 2009 Scheels Fargo Marathon.
