Fantastic day, fantastic race - probably the best I have ever run. PR by 8 minutes for me, big negative split in the second half. 20 degrees at start - crazy for FL, but good for this NH boy. Felt like I could have kept running at the end, no pain, and probably left too much in the tank, but I had an absolute blast! I'll post a full write-up on my blog in the next few days.

    Thanks everybody - I can't tell you how it felt to not be the guy walking in pain at the end (like I have been in my four previous marathons). I'm still trying to pinpoint the difference - I'm floored that mile 26 was my second fsatest of the race - I can usually barely move. Disney puts on an amazing race, I would do this one again in a second - maybe Goofy challenge next year!
