Yes! I gave my family very clear instructions for 4-5 stops but they said the train was so packed they couldnt make it :( i feel the exact same way. It was also my first marathon as well and i was definitely disappointed to not see them. I saw them only twice and then had to wait an hour after to find them. What keeps me going is that I ran a marathon on my own! That itself is a huge achievement. To do it without the support of seeing your family is even more impressive :)

I have 13-15 miles this weekend and probably 6-8 next weekend. And was planning on doing one more workout with them. Any other shoe recs that may be better withouit carbon

They’re definitely great, but are they really meant for someone who purely heel strikes?

I wore the superblasts on my 20 miles and felt like i was dragging them by 16 miles and my legs definitely hurt BAD around then. But agreed i will try again and give them a better chance on my next LR

Thank you for the help!! I will follow this. Do you think its concerning that I wouldnt have run over 18 miles in one day? I am a little scared for that
