Analysis of these splits isn't really necessary. As a general rule, I moved up in the field throughout the race. I thought I was managing my nutrition well with 200 calories an hour. Mile 35-45 was the hardest part of the course and I bonked even on this amount. I quickly ate about 400 calories and then went back to this schedule and came around after about 30-45 minutes.

Mile 45-46 was a 1000 foot drop in 1 mile and it was really nice to pass about 6 people who were slowly walking down this section. I ran! From 46 to the end I continued to pass people but there just weren't that many to pass any more. I kind of neglected my nutrion and just went to coke at this point as it was easy. The last 10 miles I was still running the flatter sections and the downhills and walking the uphills. I think I could have continued to do this for a while if I had a 100 miles to go but it is always hard to say. My nutrition needs to be better.

As I write this a week later, no back pain at all! Yeah and looking forward to the summer.
