I am way out of shape. What I need to do is work with the family to find the time to train. I planned a 10 min mile which worked well for the first two.

Performance: Below average
Course: The course is relativly flat with the exception of a hill 3/4 of a mile from the finish. Well managed race. It was a memorial day event so there was plenty of motivation - carnations for all to place on a memorial for fallen Airman.
Keeping cool Average Drinking Just right
