I had slight stomach cramp at mile 3 but it went away pretty quick. Also got a right leg calf cramp at mile 8 that went away once I was off the dirt road and back on the pavement at mile 10.
The only real set back was that my bag of extra water bottles and food was taken/stolen from the side of the road, where Bobbi (it was awesome that she came out this morning with me) had dropped them off. So at mile 11 came and went and I had drank all my G2 and ate most of my Bonk Bar and Sport Beans...there was nothing there to replace them with.
Luckily Bobbi drove by and handed me another G2 to refill with...By mile 13 I was back at the 8:30 pace and kept it till the end.
It started off rather cool (44F) when I started but rose quickly to mid 50's by the end...If I can keep that pace for the 26.2 I should be well under 4 hours and I will be very happy.
Overall, great prep for the MCM in 20 days... now I'll slip my Mojo compression socks on and chill out for the rest of the day...
I run for GR!
