Well it was a cold, cold start. I felt really good till about mile 3 i had a little urge to go to the port and about mile 4 I started looking/ praying for a port... finally got to mile 5 at a water stop and unloaded...lost about 2 min. and tried not to panic too much i pretty much new deep down that my goal time was history... I did manage to win the masters out and took 5th place overall. Learned a few things along the way as well.. the runderwear I bought (Brooks) worked wonderfully. the cotton gloves i wore sucked after i got them wet and I couldn't use my hands to grab my gu's. I should have dressed warmer. Tough race for me.

I've thought about running this race because I have family that lives in Tulsa. How is the course?

Jenruns the course was a fast first half and a hilly 2nd end..It would be a good practice race for Boston for sure.

Congrats! Looks like you still killed it with the masters and age division wins. I had similar issues early on with the urge to stop and go, but like a dummy I did my best to ignore it. My bladder probably wasn't too happy with me.
