    Back, 8.6 K in something over 48 minutes. I almost died. Not really but it was tough, legs hurting after 2 of 4 rounds - DBF was pulling me all along, he said he wasn't even exhausted, I had an average HR of 181. And as my last meal was at 12.30 probably not enough fuel.

    But I made it, unlike the guy I saw collapse 100 m before the finish. He went to his knees, they tried to pick him up - he got up again and 3 people needed to restrain him. Didn't see what happened then, as I was glad I saw the arch...

    EDIT: official time is 47:15!

    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    Great job!!!!

    Sounds like a hard, but satisfying race.

    CONGRATULATIONS!
