Comments:

Ran great! I thought we would be about 9min/k, which we would have a finishing time of 45min, but I thought if we did it in 40 min that would be great - so we beat our goal time by 3 min so that was fantastic!!!
Ran with Dawn, and I didn't think we'd finish without stopping, but we did.
The last 200m we sprinted!
What would you do differently?:

Pee before I left the house!!!
Post race
Warm down:

Should have stretched a little more - think I pulled a butt muscle.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I think I could have ran a little faster but may have burned out 1/2 way through.Dawn kept me at a more consistent pace which was probably good.

Event comments:

Great event - would like to do this with the family next year.
