Comments:

It was really, really hot and I found it hard to get into a comfortable pace. I did not execute my race strategy as I hoped, but ran around the pace I wanted. It just wasn't as much fun as I normally have when running.

Event comments:

My only complaint on the race itself would be the port-o-potty lines which were really long. The start seemed well-organized which was appreciated. It was also helpful to have the fire hydrants on to run through to help keep cool.
