Notes
Went pretty well, same pains and about same severity. Subsides around mile 5 - 6. I did notice I had like a blood vessel bulging in the area when I was stretching post-run so, perhaps it is something circulatory, like an occlusion or something. One week to go! Hopefully at this time next week, I can call myself a marathoner and slap the 26.2 magnet Marion sent me on my car. :)
Splits:
1: 9:18 (oops, a little too fast)
2: 9:34
3: 9:41
4: 9:40
5: 9:42
6: 9:30
7: 9:29
8: 9:26
Not as consistent as I would like to see, but I'll take it.
