Run
Comments: Beautiful day, except the sun was pretty strong. I tend to get really hot while running (especially during a 5K pace!), so the sun felt very warm to me. Grabbed water at every water station, not so much for rehydration but just to cool off. Overall, felt it was a good/fun run!! A little disorganized/chaotic at starting line - still lots of slow runners at front of line even though they started color coding bibs based on pace. Happens all the time, though! Other than that, it was a well run race. Lots of fun post-race stuff, great shirts and free cookies! Plenty of water along course. What would you do differently?: Probably would have started further up in my color code group b/c I passed lots of people during the first 5 minutes of start. Maybe would have had more water pre-race. Few regrets, though. Post race
Warm down: walking and drinking lots of water What limited your ability to perform faster: the sun!! Event comments: had fun! big race and kind of a circus but enjoyed it. would def do it again!! Last updated: 2011-05-04 12:00 AM
