Comments:

I felt slow and cold and crappy and out of breath the first two miles. I felt like I wanted to quit. The last half was great as I was able to cathc back up to people and pass some. I finished strong up the hill passing someone.
What would you do differently?:

warm up more. I think I need a good ten minutes to really get the legs ready to run at a race pace.

Event comments:

I run at this park quite often and I love this race. It is always fun to slog through the mud with my running group

Performance: Average
Course: a 6.3 mile loop through twin creek metropark. Course was changed a little from last year. First three miles consists of treks up and down muddy ravines and through streams. Halfway is a water station and the rest of the course is flat except you are running next to the river. One 0.25 mile section of trail was completely submerged. The last quarter mile or so is completely up hill.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
