Up 420. To buses 5 am.  Forgot bib in car.  Grabbed pacer bib accidentally instead. Didn't notice until on bus putting it on.  Ughhh.  My goal was just to pace  the last 17 miles. Well I thought 16 but ended up 17 at the half marathon start line  at the big Cottonwood Canyon half and marathon race. Got there  at 6:10. 47 degrees. We were packed in like sardines.  Race started on time 630.  Quite the walk to the start. I h did just to warm up.  Waited until 7:50 am with volunteers at aid station for marathon there. Learned it was marker  9.1 .  Warmed up 0.3 miles. Also nice space heater I used for a few minutes to warm toes.   My pace buddy Jefferson got to me with 30 seconds under.  I wanted to bank more time next 8 miles. We ended up banking 2:40 by mile 20.  I thought it was golden, no issues, and suddenly my heart rate was super high. Are you taking some of the electrolytes that they passed out and then learned that it was nuun sport Which has caffeine from Green tea Which I absolutely cannot handle my heart cannot take it, and I have a hard time breathing Bc of the heart rate.  I ended up having to walk twice in the 25 th mile and 26 th mile. For 30 seconds each. Here are splits : 707/709/6:52/6:45/6:33/6:57/6:39/654/659/708/7:35/7:40/8:03/8:11/8:29/9:06/8:29 and last 0.2 8:45   Like a wall!! Heart rate hard to catch breath. Coros shows it first took a dip then accelerated to 188  second walk accelerated before walking to 195   Dang caffeine  gonna bring my own in future !  1:32:35 for 13 miles and 1:33:24 half marathon 708 avg   but last 4 pushed me back to 7:29 avg  for 17.12 miles
