That's the most pain I've ever been in after a 200. It's exhaustion more than anything.
The things I am doing right now I have dreamt about my whole life,
The first 100-yards felt real good and I knew I had a good pace going. It feels good hearing the crowd and really gets you going. Just want to thank them for all the help.
