Thanks guys! I appreciate the kind words. I didn't quite hit my goal, but I will take it for my first Boston. I was on pace through about 16 miles, then the hills came. I now know why Boston is considered such a tough course as somebody put the hills right where you don't want them, (miles 16-21). I faded some at the end but didn't lose too much time. I will say I left it all on the course and felt like I had been beat with a bat afterwards and still do today.
It was a great experience though and a tremendous race with unbelievable crowd support.
Please let me know how the Wild Wild West Marathon goes and good luck to all who are running!
Thanks,
Kent
