For those who don’t care…..or wish to remind me that I posted this in the wrong place….I don’t care.

For those who do care It was the Nice to Cannes 42.195 km marathon.

I finished according to clock at 5 hr 4 min but since my group started later than most I’m hoping I got it under 5 hours.

Thanks for reading.

Sorry I don’t know how to post pictures from my iPhone gallery

Congratulations! Nice accomplishment. I've only done 2 halfs and a handful of 10ks but hope to one day do a full one.

Any new goals? Congrats again :)

Helpful little tips I can suggest:

1. Wear sunscreen but only from the nose down and make sure to wash your hands well so you don’t accidentally wipe sunscreen on your face
2. Bring 5 or more of those little energy gel packets. They help more than candy, bread, bananas, or anything else imo.
3. Hydrate before and definitely during. Don’t skimp out on any water station and some you will need to drink 2 x water or Gatorade and water. Saw at least 20 people dehydrate and were stuck on the side of the road with medical people helping them out.
