Comments:

Very good run. Ran at good pace. A little up and down but according to my Garmin my heart rate stayed level. Was able to breathe evenly without gasping. Had enough left in the tank to finish the race without losing my pace. Unfortunately I was passed 4 times in the last mile. :( That sucked.
What would you do differently?:

Sign up earlier in order to get a parking pass.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked the lenght of the concession area in order to reduce heart rate.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Nothing.

Event comments:

Transportation was an issue, but overall I think this was a great event.
