Very hot finish. I probably am not in "running" shape enough to do this race in July. When I saw other "better" runners walking, It hit me that I would never finish withour walking myself.

Event comments:

This is a good challenging race. I am a beginner in running and biking. You have to be ready for the heat. The last 2 miles seamed a lot harder that it did when I did the race in March.
