Comments:

could have run faster but with not having the race prep like I would have wanted due to illness...I focused on keeping a sold pace and feeling strong. Legs cooperated and faired well! fully took advantage of the down hills :) Took three gu packs throughout the race, which I probably could have used one more gu.
What would you do differently?:

push harder.
Post race
Warm down:

stretch, BEER, and lots of food!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

fear of hitting a wall and pushing legs too much

Event comments:

Loved the race...very fun!! Got a great sweatshirt, hat, socks, heavy glass mug, and large medal! Very much worth the money!
