Very good event with over 10,000 runners. Best feed area in the finish ever: fruit, drinks, beer (!), milk shakes, bretzel, soup, etc, etc. Temperature was quite pleasant (low 20's), but humidity was quite high.
Went out at moderate pace and realised very quickly that the legs are still tired. Ham string started playing up a bit at km 12, so kept speed consistent. Also, heart was quite high from the beginning (started below 150 and went up to over 180 at the finish). Good and hard training run, but still a lot to do before Frankfurt.
