I was expecting more of the same misery I had in Paris last week, but it felt good. Amazing crowds and it's great to know where you are all the time. Had to walk parts of it but ran almost all the distance. Somehow managed to pull out a marathon PB by a minute - although that meant turning myself inside out on the last 1.5 miles. I'm still slow by most peoples' standards but today I felt great and loved it.
