Sick! stupid cold :(

Event comments:

Good race, as per usual. Felt really sick the past few days so this really whooped by butt. But I had a great time running most of the race with KT and JE. They broke away around mile 4.5 for the long uphill of the boulevard. I didn't mind--I was glad they were able to meet their goal of finishing under an hour. I wanted to finish under an hour too, but I got so fatigued and could feel the cold just sapping my energy so I am just uber happy with the time I achieved :)
