Comments:

There were no mile markers and I didn't know the course so I had trouble pacing myself. Considering the weather I did ok though. I was 8th woman overall, and I don't know about overall overall, because the results were split by gender, but I am happy with my performance because I beat my last 5K time.
What would you do differently?:

Check out the course before the race so I know where I'm going!
Post race
Warm down:

Change into what few dry clothes I had with me. Ate a cookie.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not knowing the course, no mile markers, the cold and rain didn't help either.

Event comments:

A very low budget operation, but considering it was all for charity it was a nice little race.
