Comments:

ran with my wife, had a good time. She was hurting, too many recent miles, so we took it slow. Well, I took it slow and she was struggling pretty hard to try and break the six hour cutoff.

Event comments:

I guess what was really striking about the race was not the race but the devastation of the Puerto Rican economy and infrastructure. I don't know that I've ever done a race where the most memorable part was the poverty.
