Stayed up in Eden with Mike, Bill, Cody, Scott, Dustin and Art. Had lots of fun before and after race day hanging out. Race was cold and rainy and windy. Went out trying to be conservative hoping to have something for the canyon. Hit mile 11 and times dropped and the legs shut down. It felt like a few years ago when I had to walk at the end of 2 races. Fought hard to keep moving and stay in sight of the people I'd been following but they slowly pulled away. Came off the dam and had to go so I pulled over and had a slow old man wiz (good gads). Rain picked up pretty good down the canyon and I was getting pretty cold. The legs wouldn't go and I was just hanging on. toward the end I started to either go numb or I was warming up a touch. Felt like I picked it up the last 3 and was able to pass those who had passed me since the half. Times show I slowed slightly so the effort must have gone up. Not the time I planned but I'm not disappointed. 6:16,6:20,6:09,6:09,6:15,6:14,6:16,6:15,6:17,6:12,6:24,6:26,6:31,6:21,6:53,6:30,6:37,6:26,6:58,6:20,6:26,6:24,6:32,6:36,6:36,6:31,6:34(.38) |
