Battery on laptop dying, but not as bad as I did in this race. I was not feeling good the last few days to say the least and could not hold anything down. Needless to say my energy was very low entering the race but I actually felt "not sick" this morning. I went out at the 6:30 pace I had planned on and held it probably 9 or so miles (Garmin dead too). Then Maryann flew by me and it hit me that I was apperently struggling. I tried staying with her but only kept her in sight for another couple of miles before falling off and would eventually start hitting 9-10:00 minute miles. Hit 13.1 in 1:26 but only because I had some low 6 minute miles on the downhill in the canyon. It was all I could do to finish after 17 or so miles but finish I did! I may give a more detailed report later, but no promises.
