17 for me today. I was struggling toward the end and I kind of think it was indirectly because of the temperature - my gel was so stiff that I wasn't getting enough out of the flask. It happens whenever the temp drops below 50 or so, but it's more of an issue the longer I run. Urlea, besides your being just generally amazing, how do you manage nutrition at those temperatures?

Anyway, so 13 miles in, at a busy intersection in front of all sorts of cars, I managed to trip on the ice bumps in the wheelchair cut (why in the world are there ice bumps in Florida???) and went flying. I knew the cars were there, what I didn't know until I got up to dust myself off is that there was another runner right behind me - a guy tapering for Disney next weekend. How humiliating!

Anyway I jammed a couple of fingers but otherwise fine. Don't know if I'm going to ride tomorrow though - just generally been feeling a need for more recovery time.
