Dec 4 CIM 2016

I paced my wife for her first marathon. It went pretty well. Basically she trained only for the weekend long run and headed for the marathon. She finished one 20 mile LSD, two 17 miles run, a few 15 miles LSD, and the rest were 13 miles long run.

Our goal for her was 4:45. Since she finished half marathon at 2:03 the beginning of this year, so we think the 4:45 should be ok. My only concern was how her body will react after the mile 20.

So we started very slow, followed the pacer of 4:38 most of the time. For some times, she would try to run the pace within 10 and I held her back. The strategy went pretty well. And she was not tired at all after the race.
