Comments:

Had an amazing run. I've only run 4x in the past 6 weeks due to foot injuries. I'm shocked at how well I did (I'm SURE I'll be paying for it tomorrow!)
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. This is a time I usually do when I'm healthy, much less injured and out of practice.
Post race
Warm down:

Easy jog along the course again wtih Nicole and Lauren.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of practice.

Event comments:

Had a great time. Bob did great, I did well, and there were lots of my tri friends there too. I really needed this race to help me get my head back on track.
