Thank you very much for the feedback!
The marathon is over with a finishing time of 3:56:37. I ran the first 10 miles with the 3:40 pace group and felt really good, but I had to make a "pit stop". After using the restroom I spent the next 3 miles trying to catch up with the group, and went way to fast. It was a huge mistake and a hard learned lesson. By the time I caught them the tank was empty, so I was forced to slow way down. I couldn't agree with you more, the last six miles is where the real race takes place. I was right on pace at the half way mark and drop time in the back half.
All in all, it was a great experience. The people participating were extremely friendly, and spectators were very encouraging.
