Pre-race routine:

We were up really late because my plane was delayed out of MSP....so we only got a few hours of sleep. I was dragging! I had a cliff bar, stretched out a bit and complained about the weather.
Event warmup:

Nada...just some stretching

Comments:

Slow...I developed a side ache very early into the run, probably due to a combination of my lack of training and lack of hydration. I have been VERY lazy over the last 4 months so I knew this would be a tough one. While it was difficult and I was slow...I had fun and am glad I did it.
What would you do differently?:

Train!
Post race
Warm down:

Stretched, had some apple cider and a cookie. The went over to Jason's for the Team Ben meeting.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of training

Event comments:

Fun little race and it was only $8. Very well organized. Post race cider and cookies were great.
