One hour before race time 1 EA and 1 AF
About 30 min before race one gel

Drank one 10oz Heed and about half of a second 10oz bottle.

Did not take fluids at any of the 12 water stops on the course.
Did not make a pee stop; Did not slow down; kept moving entire run.

Legs got noticeably stiff immediately after the race. It took awhile for them to loosen up.
What would you do differently?:

Probably should have taken at least one or two more enduro's during the run.

Event comments:

I attribute my PR run today to much cooler temps today compared to my July half marathon at Presque Isle. Much appreciated was shoe attached chip time with a run over a timing mat at the start of the race. Clock time and Chip time along with 10K times were recorded. My 10k time was 53:33

Goodie bag items; long sleeve t-shirt and a real nice cap!
