First Marathon - Milwaukee Lakefront!
I kept going back and forth if I should register for Milwaukee Lakefront and I’m so glad I did.
I had done the Mighty Mississinewa Saturday, September 12th half-iron distance duathlon and knew I can endure for like 7-hours, but I still hadn’t ever done a marathon. I had even made this post before making my decision lol.
September 20th I registered with the charity entry. The only other time I ran after registering was a 10K the following Saturday. I didn’t really want to risk a long-run.
15-days later and I have done the marathon today! I felt amazing the first half, but after, especially the final 2-miles on Hoan bridge was brutal. Fortunately, it was the perfect weather and I wasn’t too hot at all. I tried saltchews for the first time too and at least 60g of carbs per hour.
Did anyone else run this race?
