Well I finished, with a new PR to boot. It wasn't pretty at the end, but I met my main goal of a new PR with a 4:11:29. I crossed the halfway at 2:02:02, but fell way off that pace in the late miles due to some severe leg cramping. Oh well, I can't be upset with today. I gave it my best, and my legs carried me 26.2 miles. Now for a lot of rest and recovery. I'll try to write up a race review (with pictures!) tomorrow before I forget everything.
Here is how the last week of training (major taper week) looked, all 35.77 miles (running) of it:
