Comments:

About the 30km mark I felt a ping in my achilles.
I made it to the aid station at 34km and stopped. I walked around a little and everything felt ok, so kept going.
I abandoned at 40km because I couldn't stand it any more.

Probably a good thing I did. They cancelled the race while we were still out of course due to the heat, and we all had to find our own way back.
What would you do differently?:

More electrolyte.
Strap my ankle.

Not go out in the heat... whatever.
