the DATA…
My guess: No idea, range could be between 3:25 and 3:45… so I truly have no clue. I had a great training year, my best ever if I can say so myself, but my halfs this fall weren’t great and I am totally not motivated to do the marathon. I am going. I am trying my best (hopefully) but I haven’t done a marathon in two years so I am not even sure if I can get it up for 
GO ON! Place your bets below!!! (I will probably not look until after, and no need to be nice!)

Prizes shipped only within the US, but you can pick it up when you’re in NYC if you are abroad! Or have me send to someone in the US.  / Guesses will only count if done before Friday, November 18, 8 pm, ET.  on the original post / Other comments anywhere else (Runners World, facebook, twitter, etc.) won’t count / If there are two guesses with the exact same time, the first one wins.

  30. 3:35:30. The weather will be cool so you can run faster. 🙂 Good luck! I hope you have a fun race! (I hate marathons — I have run 5 and have retired unless it’s a trail or obstacle marathon, then maybe…maybe…). I admire you for hanging in there and putting in the training.
