All splits up to this point have been Garmin splits but the Garmin measured the course at 26.5.
... 36 minute PR for me. Cutting minutes will get much more difficult from here.
It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.
Why is it sideways?
Non ducor, duco.
Official time: 3:39:23, a 36 minute PR for me.

Did some log stalking on you Amores. Fantastic race! And it doesn't look like you faded at all.
I thought 36 minutes was a lot 65 minutes is unreal.
... Earlier in the year, before the glitch in the 2000mile pace group happened, you and I were neck and neck fighting the pace bunny. I used your progess for motivation to get my training runs in - thanks, man. RA is a great place, eh? Keep up the good work!

Went down on my knees after the finish and had sort of dry heaves. Got up, legs were rubber, more heaves, then sitting on the curb.
