A really hard race - went out too fast, felt awful, gave up, started again and then finally found my mojo again at 41K to skid into my BQ with 13 seconds to spare. Not pretty but done. Read about it at http://petraruns.blogspot.com

    Stiff but good. I'm feeling a bit sick still which makes me think something was up with me during the race. Still a bit cold etc. And I have stopped worrying about the BQ - I can't really imagine them changing my chip time for any reason and if they don't I'm in. Thanks Marty - I'm now focusing on cheering you on! You're faster than greased lightning at the moment!

    Congrats, Petra! I had another friend get her BQ with a 3:44:55 last weekend and another who DNF'd. A BQ is a BQ even if it didn't go like you planned. Enjoyed reading your blog and looking forward to meeting you at Bizz!
