Pre-race routine:

Nothing. I didn't want to drink any water before the race because I didn't want to feel full. I didn't eat any breakfast because I knew the race was short and I would have time afterward to replenish.
Event warmup:

I did a little bit of stretching. We had to park a half mile away...I guess that walk could've counted as a warm-up.

Comments:

Very Hilly. Start was tough. It was hard to navigate around people.
What would you do differently?:

Train on Hills
Post race
Warm down:

Stretched. Jogged back through the course to find my mother (who was walking) to finish the race again with her.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Two factors:
1. I have not trained running hills.
2. Navigating around people at the start.


Event comments:

Even if the course had not been a great run course, I would still do the race again. It is for a great cause.

OA - 650/914
Female - 370/500
