Outstanding run. I knew I started out fast (got to wear my new Brooks Launch shoes for the 2nd time ever) but I tried to keep that pace and think I did pretty well. Didn't have my Garmin to check myself and there were no mile markers so I had no way of knowing how I was doing. I just pushed hard the whole time. No one passed me at all and I passed about 8 people. Didn't get any water but my throat was crazy dry by the end.

The weather was great as we had a cool front come through and it was probably around 80 when I started my leg, around 8pm. Most of my run was in the dark so I couldn't see my watch (the backlight on it is broken). Only negative was I developed a big blister that broke open on my big toe. I felt it pretty early in the run but I wasn't going to let it slow me down.

My team ended up with a time of 1:25:44. They did great and we had a lot of fun.

Nothing, best run I have ever had in a race!

Changed out of my shoes into flip flops due to the blister. Grabbed some water then headed into the beer corral for food and beer.


Nothing.


Hadn't done this race in years but it was a lot of fun. Ended up starting 15min late which pushed us later racers into the dark but it made for a cooler run. After party was great with the food and beer. Would do it again for sure!
