IHUB ROAD RACING AND TRAIL RUNNING

[DOLLARLAND]

Illinois Marathon didn't go as well as I had hoped, but I finished.

Ran the first half in 1:39 and felt pretty comfortable, but by Mile 15 I could feel my legs getting heavy on me. By Mile 17, my legs were cramping pretty badly, and I starting walking some. I think the high humidity played a big factor, as fluid/electrolyte loss likely led to the cramping. Ended up running/walking the second half in 2:09 for a finish of 3:48.

I'm ready for a summer of 5Ks and 10Ks now. Might try to tackle another marathon later this year. Thinking perhaps Dallas in December.
