After enjoying a fresh salad at Earth Fare tonight while the kids were at swim practice, I was reflecting on the weekend and thought I would write this race review.  Went 3:19.47 at Columbus Marathon this Sunday.  It was a great fall Ohio day for a marathon at an always fun place to run.  Temp was about 39 at the start with a brisk wind making it a little on the chilly side.  Once race started however, turned out to be a clear, blue sky sunny day around 60 degrees with wind tapering down.  The different areas of Columbus along with music, fans, a full field of runners, along with a run through the OSU stadium at mile 17.5 make this a great fall marathon for those looking for a BQ time.  This was the 4th year for me to run this race with the past 3 yrs resulting in a BQ time of 5 minutes plus.
