Notes
Good logistics before the race. Got off well and was on splits thru 5 but felt like I was working for them. At 8, lead women went by and just shy of 12 I knew I was done. Went thru the half in 1.22. Was windy but mainly I was exhausted. Overtrained this cycle and legs were just exhausted. Kept going but was a slow go the last 14 miles with a few brief walks and took in a ton of water and gu to try and get some energy. Mainly tried to keep a slow pace even if it was slow so was anywhere from 8-10 min. Last mile was able to pick it up and the last 800m I was able to kick it in and pass a bunch of folks. Proud to have finished given how terrible I felt. Always a great event.
