Miami Marathon

A little less than 2% done with the states (I'm including Washington D.C. in the list of states).

The weekend had big snow fall on the east coast.  Miami was cold for Miami, I have been in colder weather during marathons, so  no complaints from me about this one.

At the start another athlete whose injury left him with limited strength and control drifted to his right and his rear wheel hub was into my left rear wheel hub.  Ever see the chariot race in Spartacus?  I was left to wonder if there was any damage and if the wheel would make it 26 miles.  I finished the marathon.  Whether there is damage is another issue I will have to determine and take appropriate action quickly more training and races to do soon.

A little too much drama in the first race
for me.  I understand a good story needs some stress inducing elements.  I am not looking to tell a good story.
