Comments:

Pretty fun race. It was pretty cold. It was pretty crowded for the first two miles so I ended up running pretty slow for the first bit. Ended up with a 2 min negative split which is too much. Maybe need to work on my race strategery?? Next time.

Event comments:

Holy crap were there a lot of volunteers. The aid stations had what looked to be about 3 million people at each of them. Well stocked and staffed. Everyone was very nice, polite, helpful and friendly.
