Comments:

This was a difficult run. I felt lactic acid burn out at mile 6. I had to work to just finish. From mile 11 on I was struggling just to keep running.
What would you do differently?:

Use better shoes. Utilize gel packs at miles 4 and 9. Hydrate as I do when I train.

Warm down:

Hit the pool. Ate and Slept. Yoga

Event comments:

This race is not for the newcomer. It is difficult. If you race you will need to train for the hills and the terrain.
