Comments:

This was my first run in several weeks following my 2nd metatarsal toe injury. Plan was to just run whatever felt comfortable without looking at watch. Pleasantly surprised with outcome to say the least!
What would you do differently?:

Not wear the light jacket I had on as I got warm 3/4 way through the race.
Post race
Warm down:

Gatorade and Starbucks Thanksgiving Blend coffee! :-)

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of training due to toe injury recovery.

Event comments:

Well done by the folks at ACSC... looking forward to the 10K in Feb!

Performance: Good
Course: Nice layout with 2/3 of it being on a dirt road on back side of golf course. There were a lot of large stones to watch out for and one small incline but overall a nice layout! The hardest part was running by the golf clubhouse and having to deal with the smell of breakfast cooking inside... BACON BACON BACON!!!!
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
