Comments:

Man, what a beautiful day, really couldn't ask for anything more. I goofed and lined up too far back which made for a crouded first couple of miles. In previous years they had signs for mile pace. Perhaps I missed them but all I saw was the full mary finish pace groups. As I said perfect day. I think I set a pr but a little upset because I wanted to break 1:35. Oh well never was a runner until a few years back. Finished without any injuries so was a good day.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing

Warm down:

Met family, had a brat (actually my son ate most of it, little too much after a hard effort). The beer was great but only two tickets this year! No line so got a massage which was a nice treat. Went to Denny's and completely destroyed any health benifits of the day.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Ability

Event comments:

Great race, I usually like the smaller ones but they do a very nice job in Green Bay. Have done two halfs and a full there and will be on my calendar for years.
