Comments:

Severe achilles cramping at mile 20, 20 Mile marker hit in 2:10:59, terrible last 10k
What would you do differently?:

Another poor job of pacing, ran first half in 1:24:16, just too fast.

Event comments:

Excellent first year race.

1. Water bottles at water stop? Terrible, please be more aware of green efforts.
2. Finishing area completely blocked for spectators on one side of stands.
