Here is my race report from Dublin 2 years ...Anon,<br /><br />Here is my race report from Dublin 2 years ago with all the splits:<br /><br />http://www.beermatt.blogspot.ie/2010/10/dublin-marathon-22820.html<br /><br />I think you need to get to halfway and feel like you've just started out. Then it's only a half marathon to go! If you're still feeling good at 20 miles then it's time to pull the trigger. It's a great feeling overtaking people at this stage if you're still feeling strong.<br /><br />In summary, run the first half in complete control. Feel fresh at halfway and hopefully you have something left for the last 6 miles. Enjoy the day - the first one is always special - and hopefully you achieve your goal. Good luck!

Is there any distance you'd advise holding back for until you should start getting into the swing of things so you've enough energy for the final 6 miles?<br /><br />Was trying to find your first marathon report here, but it's not on here. How did it go for you, what were the splits like and at what stage did it get tough?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
