Grant rode down with me , left around 5:20 am picked him up then had a giant breakfast at Tims is Orangeville arriving at York a little before 08:00 am. I was a little tired waking up hourly through the night. Its not unusual not to sleep well before a race but it may of had something to to with the 2/3rds of a large Pizza that I ate for Dinner last night.
The Race started shortly after 09:00 am. Went out real easy on the 232m track logging 9.532K in the first hour. Gelled at the 45 minutes mark and ever 30 minutes there after and took 1 S Cap on the hour and every hour there after. Picked it up a bit through the 2nd hour getting 19.76K done. About 2 hours in I noticed some muscle pain through my upper legs but I though it would pass. I flew through the 3rd and 4th hour passing the 40.22K mark at 4 hours. I felt strong although the ever present muscle pain was still there and getting worse. The 5th hour started out pretty well but it was becoming difficult to keep pace. At around 4:45 I fell off pace , gelling and walking a lap. I knew that the "A" goal of 60K wasn't going to be possible to I searched for a new gear hoping to surpass last years 55.57 K distance. Struggled to find a new pace to make my goal and didn't settle into a new pace until after I gelled again at the 5:15 mark I was going to take another S Cap at the 5:30 mark but didn't dare stop for a moment knowing how hard it would be to get going again. With 20 minutes to go I was at 53.704k and felt confident that I could get to 56K. My plan was to continue to shuffle along until I passed 56K then I could walk the remaining time. I managed to keep going an passed 56.03K in 5hrs56min23 seconds adding a PB to the start of my season.
I finished 8th out of 36 participants and I was 5th out of 22 Men.

Sounds like I missed out on a time.. not sure if it would have been good or bad. Glad you beat your goal distance- even b standard.
