What limited your ability to perform faster:

Rain came down mile 8-9 or so and my feet got wet. It was absolute agony- I have huge blisters in my arches. Around mile 12 on a down hill I hurt my left knee.

Event comments:

Lots of freebies and a finisher medal.

Performance: Average
I used the run/walk strategy that was talked about on BT. I ran 7:30 then walked 30 seconds. I also walked the water stations, resetting my watch at the last trashcan.
Course: Tour of Downtown C-bus. Started out downtown, went through German Village, up High St, left at Lane Ave, down Olentangy River Rd to the Olentangy greenway back to downtown.
