Event comments:

I trained hard... attempted to run far and barely made the cutoff at Winfield which is the turnaround point on the course. It was extremely unlikely that I would have made the next cutoff so I decided to end my attempt. I am proud of how far I made it and am lucky to have actually ran the entire course (one way).
