OKC Memorial Marathon. Dawn Patrol. In the corral at 540 am, per custom. Rain, lightening, high winds, fear and locust. The race was postponed for almost three hours, finally kicking off at the crack of 830 am. Worked the long-sleeves for this one: temps started in the mid-60s and felt cooler with the constant rain; however, once the storms passed things heated up quickly. Total run activity per Runkeeper has the route at 13.46 miles completed in 2:11:12 for a 9:45 min/mile pace.  Official race results pending. Spartacus Redux Mix on the box. Ditched the earbuds at mile ten for a change of pace. Overall, it was a solid morning and yet another good running experience.
