In my first marathon I went a ways believing the race committee had failed to post the 23 mile marker. I assumed that had to be the case since it didn't appear at nearly the same time interval as the previous 22 markers........
Well, you certainly picked a doozy of a first marathon. Big Sur has to be the most beautiful race in the country. It's also one of the hardest. Hills, hills and more hills. None of them are killers untill about mile 24. The last one is murder. Get in lots of hill work, race smart, and don't go out too fast. I had my best marathon performance at Big Sur, not my fastest, but my best finish. If you train right, and pace right, you are going to love it!
