Run
Comments: Hydration was great, I walked every 6 miles for a drink and a gel. Some cramping in my knees, since it was for fun I really didn't train these distances. That was to be expected. With 2 miles to go my knees became a big issue and forced me to walk, I was able to limp it in to get under my goal of 7 hours. What would you do differently?: Nothing, this was for fun. Post race
Warm down: Beer, Food, Repeat What limited your ability to perform faster: Distance, and my mind Event comments: This is a fun bunch of people, they all provide a lot of support. If your looking to spice up your off season give a winter race a try. They also had other modes of transportation, bike and ski. The bikes look like a lot of fun. Best comment I heard all day, " no one looks down at you for walking". Last updated: 2013-09-26 12:00 AM

Started the week with an endura lite each day, recovery shake after my 2 short runs. Pre race nothing special, 2 PBJ with a gatorade, cup of coffee.
None, walked the first 1/4 mile to get myself ready
