What the running has done is allowed me to not get even more overweight while eating the same amount. My waistline and I are currently in a standoff.<br /><br />Beth: We missed you out there! The heat was truly bad, but the shirt and medals were among my favorites (a view not universally held though).<br /><br />Nafets: It would be interesting to see the DNF numbers over the years just for curiosity's sake. I do expect that it was unusually high this year (I know a couple of people that stopped at the second aid station, which I didn't know you could do, and if things are not going well, that's a great place to call it a day, before going up that second hill). <br /><br />I'm still in a bit of shock that I finished this year.notthatlucashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10429091759111933245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5756791581583911888.post-80427534935264482212014-10-13T10:14:25.064-07:002014-10-13T10:14:25.064-07:00Brazen Racing usually does not post DNFs.

On facebook they answered a question regarding DNFs at the Rocky Ridge HM: "We don't usually list DNFs in our results, but there were roughly 15-20 people who started the half distance but didn't finish it." <br />I believe that is an unusually high number, and it is likely due to the high temperature during the race. In San Ramon the temperature recoded on October 4 was 95 degrees Fahrenheit!Nafetsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5756791581583911888.post-90577907789315775762014-10-12T13:10:26.634-07:002014-10-12T13:10:26.634-07:00Madonna and Randy Johnson, lol.
