I ran a little slower in the middle trying not to fade in the end. But I ended speeding up to finish in under 2hrs. I probably could've gone faster. I wish I had gotten some gatorade at the water stops. I didn't want to stop and drinking and running was difficult. Carrying water was a good idea. I could drink when I wanted to and avoid the water station chaos. Weather was perfect there was a brief slight drizzle but sun came out. I also should've started closer to the front and not have to pass as many people. The gun time chip time difference was about 1:27. I felt good all the time.
