Comments:

Leslie and I (Snow Miser/Heat Miser) decided to stay together and we were successful. I was dying but I stayed with her. It ended up as a PR for her and a post-injury PR for me. It was fun!
What would you do differently?:

Not much... Not sure wine, French fries, and a candy bar are appropriate fuel, but whatever....
Post race
Warm down:

Just walking up to get our free beer!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of training coming off injury.

Event comments:

This is my favorite race of the year. It's become a fun, festive family tradition.

None - didn't get Garmin started correctly
Course: Nice loop through Seneca Falls - not too many turns, some uphill, but not enough to call it hilly. Cold, but not super cold this year. Flurries falling as we ran!
