Comments:

Started out great. Fastest 10 I have run + fasted 1/2 marathon and I was feeling good. My heart rate was down and I seemed to be cruising. I felt like I crashed the last 2 miles. The hardest thing to do was finish. I had a PR so I was happy but I wanted under 3 hrs also.
What would you do differently?:

I should have drank more / earlier.
Post race
Warm down:

almost passing out from the lat two mile so I just walked around

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Drinking in the beginning. Need more in the beginning.

Can you elaborate a little? What the hell kind of race report is this? How about telling a little about the 1:25 split at the 1/2!

You show up at IMLP, your first Ironman race and cruise to an effortless 50 min swim, and come in UNDER 10:20!!! Now you almost go under frickin' hours in a marathon and we get a paragraph? That's it?!!

Nice race Keith! For not following any training plan you sure as hell race well!!
