did the thing in 3:52:47 including an extra half mile of dodging and weaving according to mr garmin.
no wall, no blisters, no struggle, just easy running tbh... if anything i was mostly frustrated that I was forced into plus 9 min miles for a lot of the course and had to make it up when the roads widened.
knew i was easily sub 4 hours when i got to the finish but i also managed to sneak in under the official 4 hour gun time as well in 3:59:40 from the official start. which included a little bit of extra effort on the last stretch. still had a little left in the tank.
basically my training was spot on. can't find a single fault with my prep at all. hansons marathon method == approved.
