At least two STers won their AGs at that race. DubyaKay and good old me :-) Anybody else go Top 5 or 10 in their AGs? I know there was a good ST contingent at the event...

Yep, I took the M 35-39. I really wanted to break 10 hours, but I feel like I completely emptied the tank by the time I got to the last .5 mile or so, and for the first race in a long time, I can't really think of anything I would have executed differently if I had the chance. So I'm happy with where i crossed in the end. Maybe could have found a bit more 'suck it up, buttercup' in the last lap, but writing that when looking in the rear view mirror at the race when sitting in front of a computer, versus actually doing it at 9-10hrs into a race, are two very different things.
Kept telling myself "If I wanted Easy, I would have gone down the road to Disneyland" in the last 10k. Nice to have a mantra to take away the hurt.
Great race, and the volunteers and aid stations were outstanding. You just can't beat independent iron races.
Great job to all. Oh - and a special shout-out to Kimberly from TN:
YOU DID IT!!!!!!
