I was on a track to finish in about 3:40, but all good things has to come to an end! At mile 16, my hamstring started to cramp, and from there it went downhill.I finnished at 3:55:00, as runner number 9997 of 39805 that started. I forgot my Garmin GPS, so I don't have any map, but here is some splits.

Both because the high temperatures and humidity, but also because I am training for two big events later this year. The first one is the NYC Half Marathon, (http://www.nyrr.org/races/2007/nychalf/index.asp) August 5, 2007. The race starts in Central Park, goes through Time Square, and 13.1 miles later it ends in Battery Park. The second big event is of course the NYC Marathon (http://www.ingnycmarathon.org/home/index.php) , November 4, 2007. This will be my second marathon, and this year I plan to have more that 5 weeks of training before the race!
