Comments:

Great course and I felt very strong, several areas were too tight but other than that I was thrilled with the run.

Lots of nice pace booty as well! :)
What would you do differently?:

Not put on race t-shirt during run.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I run on Illinois hills - this course was much hillier than I usually run.

Also - it was cold & windy to start and I had too much on and overheated a bit.

Event comments:

Great place for a Thanksgiving Day race.

Sunny - but windy and cool. I heated up too much during the race but was pretty happy with my time and averaging a 8:23 pace.

I was shooting for a 8:15 pace but the course for MUCH hillier than I expected.

It was fun doing a race with my wife.
