Pre-race routine:

Not much to speak of. I knew I was in over my head, because of the car accident and not being able to train...
Just caught up with some friends before hand and listened to the annoucements.

Train.
Post race
Warm down:

I got stung by a wasp 4 times 500m from the line.
I had to sit in first aid for 15 minutes after, getting the stings out of my foot, so I had no cool down.


What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of training, because of the accident. But I sucked it up and tried anyway.
I could have probably run a little more than what I did, because I walked some of it, but I would have been sorer than I am now :(

Event comments:

I was a little disappointed that they started presentations before my friend and I finished. Yes, we were last, and very close to the cutoff, but they also packed up the mid-lap drink station before we got there, and were throwing out the last lot of water as we passed.
There won't be a finisher photo of us either, because the camera crew weren't there.
I know we were slow, but shit.
