Up at 5:15AM for a 7:00AM start. No breakfast.

Fueling: Full 4 day load of Race Day Boost.
One RCS and one Mito before leaving hotel
One gel 5 min before race start
Mile 7.5 one expresso gel
Drank several ounces of SE (4 tablespoons in 10 oz bottle)
A swig or two of plain Heed

Felt my best of all half marathons this season at this race. Did not go through by usual struggle sometime during miles 4-9. The reason could be my fuel SE. Will certainly continue to use SE on my long runs and races. Certainly not a flat race course with 412ft of climbing according to my Garmin. As usual Rock N Roll puts on a GREAT and well organized race. I am anxious to receive my first age group award from a Rock N Roll race.

After you have established the Ironman goal, the most important factor outside of the training is which race to choose? What is your best sort of course, hilly, rolling, flat?
