First Half in 1:36

Second Half in....much longer.

Felt good up to about 20 miles; then wheels came off.

Heat was a big factor...not sure about my race day strategy and hydration.  I thought I was doing things right, but in hindsight, I should have adjusted even more.

 Last few miles were quite difficult.  Ended up in Medic Tent (threw up alot of water/gatorade and got an IV).  Ugh. 

What an experience...more details to follow.
