Elite 3687 | Subject: RE: CenturyTel WhistleStop Marathon : MN Official Thread Any crazy thoughts of sneaking up last night were erased by the predicted temps. All the best of luck to you guys today. We woke up to half an inch of snow in the southern metro this morning. |

All the best of luck to you guys today. We woke up to half an inch of snow in the southern metro this morning. Bryan, you didn't miss much. To me it was miserable 27 and windy (at least at the end). I thought I did everything right, started out relaxed kept the heart rate down, had a gel and electrolyte tab every 5 miles, hydrated well. Wheels came off! Couldn't ever get warmed up. Thought I might have been hypothermic at mile 16. Funny thing is that all my running buddies who typically run close to 4 hours all ran about 25 minutes slower. I came in at 4:39. This is the first race I have seriously considered DNFing. You didn't miss much... |

Elite 3687 | Subject: RE: CenturyTel WhistleStop Marathon : MN Official Thread Sorry you had a rough time out there Sal. I mowed the lawn this afternoon in my winter coat, hat and gloves and had to stop half way through I was so cold. Good for you for gutting it out. |

Master 2808 , Minnesota | Subject: RE: CenturyTel WhistleStop Marathon : MN Official Thread DNS for me due to a migraine. Couldn't keep anything down, no fluids...nuttin'. I saw Sal at about the 5 mi mark and he was looking ok...not great, but ok. My three folks that I was following did OK, but their feet got chilly. Good thing that 25 mph wind was at your back, Sal! |

Hope you're warmed up by now, Sal! Hope you're feeling better, Jeff. I had steak, pasta with cream sauce and bacon, batter-fried onions, veggies and 5 glasses of water after the race and still couldn't warm up. Almost ordered another steak combo plate... Feeling better...ran a quick 20 this morning...minutes, NOT miles... Had to walk for a few minutes before stepping it up to a jog...I should be ready for the Monster Half... |
