Congrats, Kev!#datfinish
Thanks. A little wind at my back for the last 1.5 or so, but ran into the wind for the first 7, so I think it evens out. The course was a little odd, where the final GPS distance on my watch was close to 13.2, and I forgot to end it right when I crossed the line. Coupled with the fact that I haven't seen official results yet, so I don't know my actual time. The clock was about 1.40.17 when I crossed - I don't think it took 17 seconds for me to his the starting line, so I think I'm going to be mad when I see I was less than 10 seconds from breaking 1.40. But, now I know sub-1.40 is in me, and I wouldn't have said that a month ago.
. I kept that consistent, at least. Doctor said I wouldn't cause more damage to myself, but it would be painful. I'm just going to go all in, I have also been feeling better with time, so hopefully I'm not dying tomorrow. I ran 2 today, and did strides at fast speeds, with zero pain. I also got taped up by the doctor, and feel better about that. At this point I'm fine with just finishing it, but it sucks knowing I could've met my goal of under 4hrs without this injury..
. Nike app says I finished at 4:20. But I'm pretty sure I finished at 4:39, from the website. My heart rate was actually low the whole time, I never felt exhausted or winded, at any point. But for the last 800m, I went beastmode and full speed, felt awesome. I could literally only run at full speed or the pace I ran the whole time 
. Pain was bad if I tried to run at a faster pace . 
Good job
Had the worst cramps I've ever experienced. Had to stop and massage my legs with biofreeze 2X! Big thanks to the volunteers! Not sure how I finished 4:00:29
