Seems to have been higher than normal based on what others have said. Noone seems to have wanted to miss the first post Covid one maybe?

Was it much warmer than previous years? Keep hearing about the carnage there from people who did it.

15 degrees on the 30th of October sure! Ridiculously warm for the time of year
The starting line is a marathon is no place to be if youāre carrying any niggle or bugs. You need to be in the full of your health.

I think it was the humidity more than anything. It felt much harder than it should have even before 10k. I thought Iād be comfortable until 25k minimum but 3 hour pacers caught me at 18k and I was goosed.
