Did the 16.3 mile day race at hellhole yesterday. It was a unique experience to say the least. I do a little bit of trail and off road running but this was a bit crazy. The last 4 miles or so were terrible with large portions of ankle/shin deep water and mud. I really wanted to quit and walk near the end but 2nd place kept gaining on me. Finished right around 2:01:07 according to Strava, 7:18 average pace. Was hoping to break 2 hours but the conditions were too tough to hold the pace near the end. Had a few splits under 7:00 where it was more easy going. 2nd place was only a minute or less behind me, dude made me earn that win...
