Good thing about knowing you may have left a little something on the course is that it's a great motivator for the next one...

Started with a smoothie for breakfast, which is key. Then three gels: 1 Gu Espresso and 2 Clif Razz. And, a total of 20oz of Nuun. I didn't bother with the water stops because I'm completely inept at the grab, fold and drink. I'm a runner: not known for my hands<br /><br />Jeremy - How dare you?!?! That hat has powers. Plus, it's the "you're getting smoked by a dude in a flowered hat" hat.sn0m8nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09815043766342554921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294323887747091246.post-52745952786886909682011-10-19T19:21:16.595-04:002011-10-19T19:21:16.595-04:00I'm quite sure your hat weighed you down for t...I'm quite sure your hat weighed you down for those precious seconds.<br /><br />Fantastic race man and you should be super proud.

You and Jamie should experiment with different gels and see if any work. They are one of the perks of modern marathoning. That and the aid stations that, you know, provide water.middle.professorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02370737843957507859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294323887747091246.post-78620656402150265502011-10-19T15:25:37.060-04:002011-10-19T15:25:37.060-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.middle.professorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02370737843957507859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294323887747091246.post-50053745131585836712011-10-19T15:04:28.518-04:002011-10-19T15:04:28.518-04:00Very proud of your race, Ryan, and great write-up ...Very proud of your race, Ryan, and great write-up too. Happy to be able to be there to cheer you on! And I agree with Jamie, I think you can run a faster road marathon, if you want to. Or, you can stick to the trails and rock those too :-)Sparkplughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13263276768990740027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294323887747091246.post-77676813338575578932011-10-19T13:54:37.421-04:002011-10-19T13:54:37.421-04:00Excellent race report.

Sub-3 is very, very possible, I do declare. Thanks for being great company.. that was a really fun race.Jamie Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09819417283043630893noreply@blogger.com
