Comments:

Was a very fast course but the start sucked because there were so many kids that did not know to stay to the back, or they sprinted out of the gate then stopped to walk in the middle of the course. The first half went very well the pace felt good, then the second half hurt a little bit more. Was sick prior to the race though so this may have been a factor. Had I felt better could have ran it faster. Will try for faster next year.
What would you do differently?:

I would seed myself farther up in the coral and just keep a steady pace.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked around fort Derussy park.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

being sick and being told by the doctor not to train while sick.

Event comments:

On of the better large races I have done in a very long time.
