Despite the strong wind and cold weather, my first marathon was overall a great experience. I was surprised by the number of people cheering throughout the five boroughs. The city is beautiful. If timing’s not a concern, it’d be nice to stop and take photos along the way (like what some participants did).
I didn’t come across any celebrities during the run, but managed to beat economist Justin Wolfers.
Training matters. I suffered much less from this marathon than any of my previous 10K runs.
