Comments:

I felt good in the beginning at the wind was to our backs. After 10km, the wind was coming right in our faces and it got a bit harder and I slowed down. The new Asics Metaspeed Sky Paris were good but one of my toes was banging against the front of the shoe and hurt it pretty badly. It was uncomfortable. At the end, the Arpad bridge was tough to climb. I gave everything but I didn't come close to my goal of 1:30. Stress in my personal life and being sick for 3 weeks didn't help with the training.

What would you do differently?:

Remove stress from life?

Walked a lot

Event comments:

One of the best races in Budapest. I've done this race several times. The weather was perfect, too bad I could not capitalize and run my goal time.
