ParisMarathon
Quite hot and hilly marathon, very busy at all times where I was running, came to a stop for about 20sec early on. Feed stations were very busy. Tailed the 3:30 pace makers for a long time, felt like running in a peleton. Dropped off at end, should have pushed it a bit more but was enjoying the run rather than aiming for specific time. First marathon without cramps, felt strong all way through. Looked at my overall time at km41 but had left it too late due to the extra 0.1km from running the long way round corners. Happy with the result, even found time for a glass of wine at mile 23!
