Decent enough 6 days after 26.2. Planned on pacing 8:00 until 10, but sped up at the turn. Felt strong until 11, and then was just sore. Nice recovery race. Gu at the turn.

Drink a little more during the 1st half.

Event comments:

Due to backlog at park gate, postponed the race until 8:30, but started somewhat abruptly and unexpectedly at 8:20. Start was disorganized and chaotic. By the time the race started my warm up was null and my legs were cool again. Bad form, LAR.
