Yup. No worse for me than my other two marathons, but no better either and maybe different muscle groups (less hip flexors and more quads). I am starting to walk better than yesterday, but my legs buckle every so often for no reason.

I was the "buddy" that ran with you guys for most of the race, and just to echo what Schuylkill said, I owe a lot of my race to Smoove's coaching early. Just extremely generous and helpful for someone I met 2 minutes before the gun. My race ended up the worst out of the three of us, but without Smoove yelling at me every time I got a step or two ahead of pace I would have crashed out much earlier and harder than I did. Watching him grind out from 18 on, stopping to stretch and then blowing by me again and again was one of the most badass things I've ever seen in a race, and awesome to jump on here and find out you hit your age group goal. Thanks again man, sorry I didn't get to catch up with you after. I obviously went straight to the bar.
Thanks for the support guys - you made it a lot of fun, and I was only kidding about the hepatitis.
Thanks my legs are buckling randomly. I can't really walk normally or do stairs.
Nothing hurts to bad but muscles are not firing correctly. It's weird. I think last year was similar but I forgot.

My quads are also a little more sore than usual, walking down stairs is the worst. Would normally do some short shakeout runs by now but going to just rest another day or two or however long feels necessary before doing anything
