Here’s my heartrate data from the race … survived 58 minutes including the ceremonial half-lap after I was dropped back to the start/finish to be pulled by the officials.
- Manageable first two laps
- At the back, struggling
- Easier, but exhausted
- Pace ramping up again, the death knell…

Wow – an avg speed of 27 even with all that slowing down for the 8 corners?!? No wonder you were exhausted!
