Whoever created that route clearly has something against runners... hardest marathon/race I've ever run. Those hills are not to be undermined! I ran 3.45 and was fourth woman (I think) which I was pleased with won't be doing that one again though and the freak blizzard at 8:00am shook my confidence somewhat! Fantastic organisation and everything went smoothly though, Beyond The Limits should be proud of themselves for today
