Eating a light breakfast of bread, crackers, and drink right now, studying a bit of Kiswahili (just in case), and trying to chill. Weather looks substantially better than last year. We should escape the worst of the wind and heat. 45F and 10mph at the start, 62F and 15mph at the finish.
Ni!

4 hours
Found out this morning that the Kenyans are here, and there are three instead of two in the full marathon. Tuwei is fresh, Serem ran Little Rock on March 2 (2:25), and Rotich ran Lincoln just two weeks ago (2:28). The pack of sub-2:30 hopefuls is still about six strong, so if the Kenyans are up front it should be irrelevant to my race plan.

Good Luck, Eric. We're thinking of you.
Nice, it's all coming together... I'll have to try and find a live feed.
I won't spill the beans, but results are up here.
You're a champion Eric, well done!
Eric, that's outstanding!!!!!
Congratulations, and please, please, please don't go on about the 35 seconds you would have loved to run faster.
I was a bit confused by the results but it looks like you may have won? Congratulations! Looking at your splits it seems you had a steady race and a strong finish... well done!!!
Awesome job, Eric. Enjoy...you certainly deserve it!!
Only on very rare occasions for most of us do the minutes and seconds not matter... Congratulations!!!
