Comments:

A new PR for me by a few seconds. I was hoping to get into the 20's on this one but knew that it would be a really tough course to do it on. Almost got it.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. I had a great race.
Post race
Warm down:

None. Waited around for the awards ceremony (my wife placed 3rd in her age group so we both placed today).

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Ummm...training. I could definitely spend more time training. Other than that nothing.

Event comments:

Need a clear indication where the bathrooms are.
