Notes
Behind the rocks 50k. 4th in the race, 3rd in the triple crown series. Pretty stoked on the 3rd place in the series. Started the race out with Caleb and Kyle and chatted the first few miles. Let caleb go but kept him in sight for the first half. Kyle surged on me a few times in the first few miles on the downhills, but I reeled him in on the climbs and then skipped an aid station to blow past him. After that he didn't pass me again. Views of the la sals went crazy with the sunrise. Took in about 80g of carbs per hour for the first half, but when we got to the turnaround and did the scramble down and up my stomach went out. Thought I'd vomit for a few miles but luckily didn't. Couldn't handle anything other than water the rest of the race, but I sat up straight and got it done. Gotta be more careful in the future because not being able to take in calories for the last 2 hours of the race is not ideal, but I never bonked and still felt strong at the close. Ready to keep putting in work. SLC marathon in 4 weeks.
