My training leading up to the race went well. I did a lot of hill training and a fair amount of tempo and speed work.
We stayed in the race hotel by the river which made race morning so much less stressful.

I had a little rough patch at mile 4 and had to work really hard to stay on-pace for the next couple miles. I grabbed water at every aid station, sipping a little and then using it to cool myself down.
The top of the Green Monster was obscured by clouds. It was very humid!

Even though I was over the crest, it was hard to really get moving again.

I enjoyed a well-deserved beer and steak that evening. It was a nice, lovely, breezy evening to bask in my accomplishment.
