Overall Average Pace: 9:54
Conditions:
- 48°
- Wind SSE 8 mph
- Humidity 85%
Observations:
- This was a marathon race, but I bonked much to my dismay.
- How could my Garmin show an entire extra mile? I tried to stay in the center of the road to prevent weaving and added mileage. Clearly, this was an epic fail!
- The weather conditions were perfect for the majority of participants. For me, it was uncomfortably cold. I dressed appropriately, but did not fuel or hydrate because I was not sweating. I developed leg cramps at mile 20. I stretched, walked, fueled. Unfortunately, I experinced little to no relief. My pace slowed significantly.
- My hopes of negative splits did not occur.
Splits:5 mi - 9:18 / 10 mi - 9:40 / 15 mi - 9:39 / 20 mi - 9:59 / 25 mi - 10:38 / 27 mi - 9:45
