Comments:

This race followed a week of severe GI issues due to either food poisoning, salmonella or a stomach bug. While feeling better, my stomach didn't appreciate being jostled on the run and as a result has some quite uncomfortable stomach cramping and two drips to the porty-potty. Definitley not comfortable.

Residual GI issues from the week before.

Event comments:

The finish of the race involves a fairly steep climb that culminates with a run in the Olympic oval where the finish line was located. Loved it!
