Medellin Marathon in Colombia. Marathon #93, #29 year to date, 4th country, 4th continent. Mediocre time. Altitude and some seriously macerated feet from a rain storm before we started led to some ugly blisters. I can’t tell you how beautiful and kind the country and people are here. The marathon however is lackluster. Boring course on highways and less than stellar organization. Fun fact: 70% of the fresh cut flowers imported to the USA come from Colombia. 60% of those come from the Aburrá Valley where Medellín is situated.
