Philly Marathon report

It was a great day in Philly for our team. The conditions were pretty favorable; 40 degrees with intermittent showers and occasional (but strong) gusts of wind. And the course was relatively flat and fun, especially during miles 19-21, which pass through the quaint and very enthusiastic town of Manayunk, PA.

Ben ran a fantastic race, qualifying for the Boston Marathon in 3:07! This was especially impressive after an ankle injury that had put him down for nearly a week during the peak of training.

Sam also had a great day, running his second-best marathon ever. Lauren PR'd! (Also coming off of an injury during training. Way to go!)

I ran a solid 3:41:38, a PR, but also a heartbreaking, mere 39 seconds off of my Boston qualifying time.
