Notes

Pretty much a train wreck of a race, but a train wreck I was able to walk away from. Did reasonably well through mile 17, started to flag a bit on 18-21 and then it all went to hell....

----------- Too much information alert -------------

The water started just sitting in my stomach like a lead balloon, I had a bad case of cotton mouth and running was starting to make me feel nauseous and dizzy. So I pretty much walked 21-25, tried an orange slice at a water stop and got sick about a half mile later. Threw up all the water and felt enormously better and was able to run the last 1.2 miles. As bad as this race was, I guess it was a good lesson in what I'm capable of going through to finish a race.
