I just wanted to make the distance. It was windy and I was nervous. I stopped to go to the bathroom and just raced my race.

I felt better than I thought I would. I walked a bit up some hills, but for the most part I ran. Ate lots of peached...they were so good. Towards the end, last 3 miles, my quads were sore. Not awful, but I could definitely feel them. Saw Trevor during the last mile and gave him a big smile!
What would you do differently?:

Nothing.

Warm down:

Walked around. Took pictures with Sarah and ate pizza.
