5:11.36
I got very tired at 14 miles and crawled the last 1/2 in.

My sister did 45400 and was right on. We wanted her to do a 5:00:00.

Perfect day to run also in the mid 40's to low 50's, little wind.

I am proud of my sister. She did well and is very pleased with her effort.

I will post a more comprehensive report later.

Finished my 6th.
Sister finished
perfect day to run
best crowd supported race I have ever run
Finished with the same amount of GU/Powergel as when I started (lots of it given away today
still great finishing a marathon. Still feels as good as my first that I finished.

minuses.
slowest marathon time ever
very tired early in the race.
Hillier course than I remember and the hills really took their toll on me.

I can't imagine you had the time to train like you probably did for your first one or two, and I think it's great how you toughed it out and supported your sister. Congrats.
