I was the 6 1/2 hour marathon pacer or sweeper for this race and my pacing method is to be ahead of schedule and then at the 20 mile mark slow down. We were about 10-15 minutes ahead of schedule at Mile 11 through 15 and we were forced to the curb. I have expressed this to the race management. Even though, I had this bad experience in 2024 they are having a new course and Ima planning on pacing again in 2024.
