Comments:

Drank Power-aid at one of the stops and felt sick almost immediatly after. I don't typically drink sugary drinks like this and although it was only 3 or 4 oz heart burn was almost immediate.

Post race

Warm down:

Walked about a mile to the car which was more then enough

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Cramps in the last 2 miles made moving difficult. Stopped several times to stretch but my right foot and toes would curl each time my foot lifted off.
