My goal in that first marathon was 3:45. I was hanging with the 3:45 pacer until about mile 15 then everything started to unravel. I swore I would never do another marathon, lol. Luckily I decided the next year to work a little harder and try again.
A 50 miler is on my bucket list and I have some friends who are doing a couple of 50 mile trail races this year. One in late July and another in the fall. I think I would regret not toeing the line with them in one.
