Comments:

Horrible, just horrible. I was toast by 5 miles for no good reason. Incredibly frustrating run considering how many 9-12 milers I have under my belt with no problems. I can't even talk about it without getting pissed off. Just gutted out 8 miles, walked a couple times between 10 and 12. There were times my legs wouldn't cooperate to pull my HR up out of the basement. I hated this race by the time I finished, 20 minutes later than I'd hoped.

I just don't know what's going on with me. The more I work, the worse my performances are.

Event comments:

As far as I was concerned, there weren't nearly enough aid stations for us BOP'ers. 5 aid stations? 1.5, 4, 6, 8, and 11 miles. I was really dehydrated by the end of the run.
