Comments:

Hard. Did not feel good. However, I am so pissed that I am still having a headache and tooth pain, I decided to kick it as much as possible. However, I got chilled toward the end of the run and had a side stich. Then extremely hot and had to take off the visor. I hate migraines and root canals. Even with all that...PERSONAL RECORD!!!!!!
What would you do differently?:

Not have a headache. Should I drink less prior to a race so that I do not have to pee 6 times prior to the start?
Post race
