Houston Marathon

7:00 AM. Sleep: 6 hr. Bailed out of the bathroom line in the corral, saw Kelly in the corral, bathroom stop at mile 1, saw Mom and Dad on Bissonnent (Dad was rocking his new Santo shirt), struggled to find my pace early but felt good, new course is good, saw Chris around mile 10, strong until around mile 20, calf started aching and legs became less responsive, surprised that no one passed me during the second half, heard Deever as neared the finish, happy with the time, got to figure out how to finish better, maybe I need to consider fueling, stretch. Splits: 6:07, 6:48, 5:53, 5:55, 6:07, 5:58, 5:54, 6:02, 6:13, 5:53, 6:07, 5:55, 6:02, 5:55, 6:13, 6:01, 5:58, 6:07, 6:08, 5:49, 6:14, 6:19, 6:22, 6:31, 6:24, 7:58 (last 1.2). 42nd overall, 35th male, 17th male 25 to 29.
