Literally doesn’t even begin to show how AWFUL the back half hills are. I cannot believe I thought this course was okay to be my first marathon. Holy shiznit
Agreed - LOL. They had a sign that said "Welcome to The Hill", with a big smiley face on it!! Miles 13-18 were brutal. That's where everything went downhill for me. My last 6 miles were faster than 13-18 were.
@@PittsburghMarathon My first marathon. The environment was fantastic. The people cheering, handing out snacks, drinks, etc were amazing. I am so glad that I did this!
oh it's gettin' REAL real now
Yes! Marathon weekend is so close!
5:45 we blew that redlight lol
Red lights can be very subjective!
I guess I'm really doing this. Okeechobee 🎉
Leonard you've got this!!! We can't wait to see you at the finish line!
is there a video like this for the half??
Any ideas where to park so that the exhausted runner can get to the car without walking another couple miles? Will the T be running?
I’m done 2:18 mins in….only doing the 5k….😂😂😂😂. Hope it’s all flat ground!
5k is still something to be very proud of! We are glad you're joining us! Flat ground TBD :)
Is this the same course as 2023?
Looks like it
