Comments:

I started alllllll the way in the back so I stood around for 10 or 15 minutes after the gun/horn went off. It was roughly 20-30 seconds until we reached the starting line. Ultimately I ran about 10.1 miles in 1:40:05.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Wind and weight. I'm losing the weight - just not fast enough. This race time probably drops 10 minutes if I was 15 lbs less.

Event comments:

Lot more people this year than last year. Better weather. Missed packet pickup by about 10 minutes on Saturday and was still able to pick up number Sunday morning.

Performance: Average
Course: Flat and lots of strong wind. I have done the same distance in a park that is really hilly and this course seemed more difficult with the two bridges and the strong head and crosswinds. I tried my best to get behind a number of runners so the wind wouldn't wear me down. Definitely a hard race regardless of it being as flat as it is.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
