This was an incredible 1st marathon experience. The course was hilly with the bridges, and the gradual incline at miles 23-24 was ROUGH. But, it is such a dynamic course with so much energy from the spectators throughout that it is easy to stay distracted during the more difficult moments. Because of the size, transportation logistics can be tough (i.e. you have to allow a good four hours in the morning to get to the start village and corrals due to the sheer number of people trying to do the same….), and finding people in the crowds is also a challenge (I missed my family entirely!). The course support by volunteers was incredible – water and Gatorade throughout, as well as energy gels, Vaseline swabs, Biofreeze, rollers, etc. at various points. All-in-all is was an incredibly well-operated event considering the size (50,000 plus participants!) and scope and one that I think anyone would enjoy participating in at some point in their running career. The medals were on point as well – and the recovery bags and post-race ponchos provided just what I needed at the finish.
