I love hearing about the different perspectives out there. A magical race for sure, luring you to do more than you really want to do... or at least a little sooner. I ran with you for a mile or so in the first 3 miles... a few spots behind the lead female. -Sean Christian,
Great report. I love hearing about the different perspectives out there. A magical race for sure, luring you to do more than you really want to do… or at least a little sooner. I ran with you for a mile or so in the first 3 miles… a few spots behind the lead female.

Leaving the first said station I remember going down hill some. Even thinking, this is going to be tough running back up. Understatement of my life. That was two miles straight uphill. It was terrible going from the turn around point to the aid station. Congrats on sub seven. Im glad I got sub eight. Hey, I ran this race (17 yr old, wore orange).

I soaked my legs at mile 39 with Sherpa John and giddy up - exactly what I needed. Excellent RR, great performance. Good luck in Mexico!

Sunday races are tough 'cause we gots 'ta work the next day.
