Notes
COMMENTS: Went out at a comfortable 6:20, followed by a 6:30. Then started having stomach cramps and was burping up vitamin flavor (optygen or vitamins?) Whatever it was, NEVER HAVE VITAMINS BEFORE A RACE! Tried to hold the cramps in check but by mile 4, was really suffering. Walked a lot of mile 5. Resumed at a slower pace and still ended up walking quite a bit after mile 6. Didn't get accurate splits because some mile markers were missing. Otherwise, a disappointing effort because my legs and lungs felt good, but I just couldn't run hard because of the stomach cramps.... next year. (26:34, 29:54)
