Completed the Hamilton Marathon

Well I did it, it wasn't easy or that fun this time, but I did it. In a time of 3 hours and 12 mins and a lot of muscle pain I finished. The downhill section of the course was very hard on the quads and I paid for it during the 2nd half of the marathon. For the last 8 miles my quads just kept getting more painful with every step and it took everything within me to just keep running. I eventually slowed to an 8min mile pace for the last few miles but was able to keep moving. At least that part of my very short marathon training is over, now on to some GSP Rush Fit for the off season and back to Triathlons (half Ironman) next year.
