Threw-up all night. Body ached from throwing up so much- could barely get out of bed. Just need to recover so I can make it through my 25k this weekend. On the bright side- dropped 6 lbs...

managed to suck it up for 8.5. Didn't feel too bad considering how I felt yesterday. Made sure to take it nice and slow. Low energy...

This was just a mess of a race for me all around.... I ran an extra 1.5 miles (2nd year running the wrong out and back route...AHHH)

Didn't eat much before the race- couple bites of a granola bar. Started in the dark with the 50kers- didn't even think about running in the dark, luckily I only had to run half blind for about 10 minutes before the sun came up.

Legs felt fine but energy was low. Took B12 before the race and had 2 caffeine gels so that helped a little. stomach was uneasy the entire race. Ran 1st/2nd with the lead guy.

25kers started 2 hours after me. I think the times for the 25kers was messed up or I ran more than 1.5 miles more than them. My time was 4 minutes faster than last year, but I think I ran about 0.50 miles more last year. But compared to the other 25kers my time was slow. I still managed to come in 2nd woman, but my overall time was off.

Frustrating, but just have to redeem myself in the next race...
