In short: Very hard being hot, but loved it!
In full: Was extremely hard race with weather being so hot! Only other marathon was London in 09, another very hot day! Would love to run it in colder/wetter conditions!
The organisation was fantastic as ever!
Only down side was that the main field (blue start) came to a standstill twice shortly after crossing start line! Kind of expect it in mass participation event, but would be nice if could be prevented!
