I got a 27:31 which is not even close to my PR, but I'm glad I didn't push myself any harder. Who knows how long my throat would be burning if I had.
I am just thankful they had Biggby after the race. The hot chocolate really helped my throat feel better.
And this is how terrible I looked:

But Sunday night made up for everything :)
