Personal:

I retired from the Army after 26 years of service in 2010.  I moved home to Arizona.  My wife and I are empty nesters.  In 2016 I had stents placed in my heart after discovering coronary artery disease.  Since early 2016 I have lost 30 lbs and got in much better shape.  August 2017 I retired again. We served a mission to Mexico from October 2017 until April 2019.

I went to the marathon course.  I parked the car and went easy uphill for 4.5 miles and then turned around(the turn around point is approx where the marathon start will be) and went hardish for 5 miles and then turned around to get back to my car.  I put the heavier shoes on for the last 8 miles.  uphill mostly for 0-4.5, the 9.5 to 10, then 10.5 to 12, then 13.5 to 15.7, 15.9 to 16, then 16.1 to 16.3.  Almost all my uphill running was also against the wind too.  The plan was to go slower than marathon pace for all but the one 5 mile stretch I started at the 4.5 mile mark.  I succeeded in that goal except for mile 13 which was a down hill mile that was easy effort but down hill.

total time 2:51:15,  splits 9:52, 9:42, 10:00, 10:19, 5:04, 8:26, 8:30, 8:38, 8:31, 8:31, 4:57, 9:41, 10:20, 9:02, 9:39, 10:25, 10:18, 9:45, 9:34. average heart rate 123.  average pace 9:31.
