Paced 2:45 half.  Drove up to Morgan with Melanie at 415 am. Arrived 540.   Got packets. Potty. Then bus at 6 am. Start very cold 50 degrees.   Got in RD truck to stay warm.  Started walk behind every one. 3/2/1 same as usual.  Min on off.  Like all my other entries lately. Course long 13.19.  Chip 2:44:32.  Gun 2:45:43.  Had a few people stick with us briefly.  Some some really dig deep people out there. Melanie left me at 11.5 miles si she came in at 2:39:45.    It was great to have her. Her music helped.  12:28 avg. since longer.  12:33if go by it being an exact half.   Btw didn't sleep.  Finally nodded off about 1145 pm. Awake 230. 330.  Up 345.  Stretched. Sit bones ached a lot the last few miles.  Burning. And feet too.  Just achy.  Loved course.  Just think slow is hard
