Pre-race routine:

Woke up at 0415. Ate 2 pieces of toast with peanut buuter and a glass of water. Once I drove an hour to the race site, I drank MDX and had a peanut butter cookie. I was on a sugar high until mile seven!

Event warmup:

Basic stretching.

Run

13.1 miles
08m 46s min/mile

Comments:

I went out fast, once the crowd thinned out. I averaged an 8 min. pace until mile 7 or 8. I consumed 2 gels at miles 5 and 10 along with water and gator aid 3 times.

What would you do differently?:

I think I would bring along three gels and consume them at miles 4,8 and 12. I really started running out of energy at mile 12. I also think I need to drink more. It took me three hours afterwards to pee.

Warm down:

Walked around, stretched.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Nothing. This was a PR!
