I got it done. It wasn’t a perfect race by any means but I am overall pretty happy with my performance.
I finished in 51:33. I had a goal to beat my PR of 48:48 but it wasn’t to be. The first half was right on target at an 8:00 pace but I had a bit of stomach distress in the second half and I was fatigued. It could have been the fact that I ate a banana and a gu gel before the race or it could have been all of the wine I drank last night. I also had a bit of a cough which didn’t help the breathing at all. Anyway, here is how it shook out. Here is the breakdown according to my garmin 405. I’ll update with the official stats once they publish the results.
