Notes
Arrived late, cursing google maps. My printer died, and I couldn't really print the directions. Didn't matter as they don't really put many street signs down there. Directons may have been fine. It was a rough week and I was totally stressed out, probably because my foot has been in pain for three weeks and I haven't gotten enough sleep for anything in my body to heal or recover from daily wear and tear. Whatever, I showed up late and started 15-20 minutes behind everyone. I did see them taking off as I finally arrived. I caught half a dozen other runners, who were great fun. I however had the foot bothering me, and the bad emotional dispostion for 30 miles to start with. Just as the trail started getting interesting, it really bashed my foot up too badly to imagine continuing. It had already become obvious this race was a bad move. First DNF, hopefully without doing any real damage.
