Comments: Very cold and windy. Had the wind with us and against us pretty much evenly. Took advantage of the tail wind and at times we were running a 7:45/mile. According to my Garmin, we never went above 9:40/mile. What would you do differently?: Maybe not walk at the aid stations. We were dressed appropriately, nutrition was good and stayed hydrated.

Warm down: Grabbed a bottled water, met Jim and the girls just past the finish line. Took pics, stretched our legs. Went and had breakfast. Took a hot bath and an hour nap. What limited your ability to perform faster: Wind and walking at aid stations. Last updated: 2013-08-12 12:00 AM

Woke up at 5am. Ate oatmeal, drank coffee and got dressed. Headed to Galveston at 6am.
Sat in the car as long as possible to stay warm. Drank a little bit of water with my peanut butter Gu. Met Elizabeth outside the port o cans. Needless to say I lost the rest of my Gus in the can. Wasn't thinking. We jogged to the tent and stayed in until time to line up.
