Baltimore Marathon

So, I ran jogged hobbled one leg of the Baltimore Marathon. It was fun to be involved in something that so many other people were participating in at the same time. And the encouragement from the bystanders only help all the more so.

Here are a couple of the painful lessons I learned as to not repeat again:

1. Make sure to actually train before hand
2. Wear sunglasses if you route runs east for any period of time
3. Wear performance socks to prevent blisters
4. Make sure that you park in a location that is not blocked by the race route

One can only guess how I learned these lessons.
