What a thrill it was to run my 17th marathon in South Florida. Miami and Miami Beach are both beautiful. Great mild weather. Flat course. Well organized event.

I was able to hold a 8:30 pace for the first 20 miles, and 9:00 pace for the rest of the race. I'm happy with my 3:44 time which placed me in the top 20 percent.

I collected two big blood blisters and a loose toenail, but I feel fine. I'm back in the pool and back in the gym.
