Felt great! Pace bunny kept me on course until the last big hill but recovered nicely on the downhill for a good finishing kick.

Pushed harder on the final hill.
Post race
Warm down:

Grabbed a nice cup of tomato soup and headed to the car.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Strength on the last hill.

Event comments:

Aid stations every 5 km just isn't enough to run without water.

Timing and results are just bizarre this year. They're ranked by chip time, not by gun time. Male and female are separated out in the OVERALL rankings, and gun time is based on the 8am early start not on the 9am official start time... Just bizarre.
