I was going to wait untill I knew my place in the race but I'll update my blog later.

I can't complain about the tempeture, nice before during and after. The main problem with the weather was the wind (yecks it was super big kite wind)!

The first half of the race I ran between 8:30"s and 8:45, then I slowed down a bit becase of my siatica and shoulder problems at least I didn't have much  athma.

I could not find Brent after and wandered around alot trying to find him gave up and got my gear bag and went back to the truck again when he finally showed up. Glad to get home.

I'll update later bye:)

Sylvie, nice race, hey, I am not that hard to find, just bring a chocolate donut. 2 minutes faster than striders, great effort. No more potty jokes while were getting a massage, it kind of takes away from the calm serenity.

Stay Kool, B of BS Rools out

Great job Sylvie! Way to cut the minutes from your Strider's time! Glad to hear the asthma didn't bug you and hope the other problems go away soon as well.
