The Longest 3025 Yards
Was on a condensed 12 week "couch to marathon" training cycle because PF laid me up for 6 weeks. Worked myself into 2:56 shape. A week before the marathon decided I was in 2:51-2 shape because the last month of training felt "relatively easy". Hit splits like a metronome with a half split of 1:25.4.x up until mile 17. Got back on pace for mile 18. Wheels fell off after that. Hips felt like they were on fire and hamstrings cramped up. Forced to jog/walk the last 8 miles. The marathon does start at mile 20. Ended up with 3:01.
