Mine was, yup. Absolutely knackered by the time I went past the start, forgot there wasn't another drop to get some free speed from but did enough. The 'Easy for the first two miles' advice from upthread paid off, but did feel like cheating at the time.
(hit my self-imposed 'time to get serious' threshold, so it's pointy helmet and fitting some aero bars from here on in. maybe.)
