CIM- 6:25AM- 5min warmup with some drills/strides. Probably best I have ever felt in a marathon for first 16mi. But by 20mi quads were trashed and my shoe was oozing blood. A little baffled by the foot- I've had some pain in the forefoot area for past month or so and have assumed to be a neuroma. About midway through the race I felt it more than usual (maybe from the downhill?) and felt like a pebble was moving around under my foot. Starting noticing blood on top of my shoe around that point but just tried to ignore it as long as I could. Messed up my watch so will paste in the mat splits. Happy to line up and get after it with the best dudes around. I knew it was a long shot in September to compete well in this race after barely training since March. 5K 16:11 10K 32:15:00 15K 48:41:00 20K 1:04:50 Half 1:08:20 25K 1:21:04 30K 1:37:33 35K 1:54:14 40K 2:12:02 Finish 2:21:05

Nice tough finish dude. Hope the foot is healing.
