The first half of the race felt great. The course was not very "hilly" and weather was great. There was a bit of rain but the temperature was not too hot and not too cold.
The race became a little more difficult when the half-marathon runners separated from us full marathon participants. We felt kind of lonely when they left us...and we had to contend with "the hill" into Oakland. "The Hill" wasn't so bad...but it felt really lonely. The second 13.1 miles were very hilly and more difficult. The last 6.2 miles were just painful. But, not too painful to quit.
I can't wait to run my next 26.2. But, next up the NYC Triathlon for Paul's Posse!
