Based on the splits, I ran a very well-paced race. I only had one mile greater than 10 minutes, and that was a hill (mile 10). The very next mile, going down hill, I ran a 7:14 for my fastest mile of the race. Even in the latter stages of the race when I was beginning to feel miserable, I still managed to maintain my pace--and I ran a negative split for the very first time in a marathon by running the second half slightly faster than the first.

Congrats on the pr, Raul.
I'm impressed that you only had 6 weeks to pull it together.
I had to back off of running because my calve told me to.
Hope to start again next week.
See you around the Rose Bowl.
John
