I just have to say that I had the most wonderful 1st marathon experience. I won't bore you with all the details but I will say that I had just wanted to do better than 5 hours since I knew this course was hilly. Luckily, I had seen bigger hills by the time I got to Cinci. Bottom line: 4:27:15!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy and I HAVE to thank Elizabeth! Honestly, you came at the right time because after mile 20.5 I started hurting. Seeing you at about mile 23 through 25 was a much needed pick-me-up though I couldn't quite pickup the pace much at that point Thanks for all the encouraging words, Jen and Elizabeth, especially. I highly recommend this marathon...lots of crowd support at almost every mile....
