Comments:

The only thing that sucked is that you run right by the finish line which at first I thought was the end but when they told me to keep going it sucked a lot of mojo out of my run. It took me a couple of hundred yards to get going again but I still finished strong. 25+ minutes faster than my last sprint in bolder.
What would you do differently?:

Just next time walk the course to know where the actual finish line is.
Post race
Warm down:

None. Not smart either.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not knowing the course.

Event comments:

I hope to do this race again next year.
