Event: D'Aguilar 2 Ups Marathon
6 AM
Run race (D'Aguilar 2 Ups Marathon) 4:31:09 [5] 42.44 km (6:23 / km) +2096m 5:07 / km
shoes: Asics Kayano 24
Started in the second of 3 waves and ended up running nearly the entire course with one other guy. Was taking it fairly comfortably chatting the first half and even stopping to take a few pics but then he pulled away slightly at about 23km as my calf was playing up. The opposite of the tight one as I may have been compensating. For about 1km I stopped stretched, walked then eventually took off my ankle tape which made it a bit better. Ended up catching the other guy back up around 30km and soon after we got to a junction where it wasn't too clear the direction. Wasted about 2 minutes as I got my phone out and decided on the way I originally thought (the correct choice). I knew if I could keep with the other guy I have him on the decent to the finish based on the race so far but I think he knew the same and surged about 6km out and even got out of sight. I tried to push on but it was so steep and my legs weren't helping. Coming down the last steep 500m he was there and I passed him. Ended up finishing 2nd by 57 seconds to a guy from the wave behind. Also a few others ended up being disqualified after taking the wrong turn at the junction we were hesitant on.
