Comments:

This ride got hot, humid, and windy towards the end. I suffered from about mile 70 on in. I really suffered the last 5 miles due to muscle cramps in both legs that tightened up with each pedal stroke. Finished nonetheless.
What would you do differently?:

Watch hydration and nutrition better

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack or training on this distance - I really should have had a couple of more long rides...
