Did a night marathon (my first proper 42,2km) in St. Petersburg. It was a late night start so I waited a bit after the finish and got to ring the finisher's bell right at the sunrise.

Good news: it was fun (in a twisted sort of way :lol ), I've got two weeks of vacation ahead, starting Monday, so there's ample time for recovery, and I think I'll need it because right now walking is a bit difficult.

Bad news: just got back to the hotel, it's 6 AM, I can't sleep and I'm too knackered to do anything else, so my roulette's results may be delayed until Monday.

Ruslan, very happy for people like you who run marathons so I don't have to.

Cool Chris

If I drive for more than 20 miles I feel like I need a rest.

My goal was 9:40/mile. It did not go the way I planned (left leg not fully recovered, it was humid and I also didn't train for late night start) and after mile 6 (out of, you know, 26.2 :lol ) I changed the goal to just finishing with no walking. I ended up with 10:55/mile and only walked through the aid stations. :) For comparison, my half-marathon in April was at 8:24/mile.

Was disappointed with the time at first but now I'm happy I just went for it and did it. There's always next time for doing it faster. Thanks for asking man. :)

I did a few 1/2 marathons 3 decades ago. Never did a full marathon.  In high school (40 years ago) lol. I was captain of the cross country team. I wasn't the fastest but my best time foe 3.0 was 18:48.

The only Marathon for me is that Rush song.
