Useless marathon data
Odds and ends I left out of the race recap.
Nutrition:
I took a Hammer Gel every 5 miles. The flavors for the day were Apple Cinnamon, Espresso and Tropical with caffeine (x2). I nursed a bottle of Grape G2 from 6.5 miles to the halfway point. All other water stations I took water, and water and Powerade at the later stops.
Equipment:
Mizuno provided the shoes and singlet (Go Juggernauts!), the RaceReady shorts were subsidized by Hammer Nutrition and socks were from City Cycle. My trusty Garmin 305 was providing the telemetry.
Here is the pace chart with heart rate data overlay:
