I managed to finish the Knoxville Marathon yesterday. The course was hilly but not too tough with most of the big ones in the first half. The finish in the big football stadium was fun and they had chocolate milk at the end (my favorite after a long run). There were plenty of spectators to keep you going and the traffic control was remarkable (they had a cop at every corner). The weather was very cooperative with clouds (no rain) and a temperature probably in the upper 50s.
Since I was still a bit sick, I targeted 4 hours and finished in 3:59. Definitely not blazing, but I'm happy with it. My legs are a little stiff, but otherwise, I feel pretty good.
