My first marathon ever completed. 
I met some nice people at the starting area and chatted with them the entire marathon. 
We walked at all the water points to not spill any water and I had to stop twice to pee. 
I stopped halfway and greeted my family. 
The crowd along the entire route was fantastic. A great experience and I had no problems at all. 
My finish time? I have no idea. 
I went to the podiatrist yesterday who removed a piece of glass. I hope it doesn't cause too much trouble today during my 8,5km recovery run. 
Milano Marathon: days -6
I'm starting to feel like running again. That's a good sign. 
Today I have a 20km LSD on the program, but I skip it because I have caught a cold and have a slight fever. 
I don't want to risk having to cancel the marathon later, because I didn't listen to my body.
Long run 15km @ 6’20/km, 125m EG 
This second 15km session today was very comfortable compared to the one this morning. This morning it was freezing cold while now it was a nice temperature.
During my runs I don’t look at my heart rate so I took a look now to see the difference between the two runs. This morning the average bpm was 116 while now it didn’t even go over 100 (avg. 97). I use a Polar H10 chest strap.
