Pre-race routine:

Ride the Metro with about 30000 people to get two stops to the Pentagon, egads! Had a little HEED / Mio mix and two handfuls of trailmix and some water
Event warmup:

Walk really fast / jog to the portapots. Had to jog fast to my corral to start the race, so about .9 miles of warm up.

Comments:

Felt great throughout the race, had to keep weaving in and out of "Traffic", but it was a good run, probably could have run faster given more training and less body weight.
What would you do differently?:

A bit more training and less body weight
Post race
Warm down:

Walk around to get my finisher medal and head to the meet up point

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Body weight

Event comments:

Would do this again, but would stay in Pentagon City instead so you can walk to the race and back and not rely on the Metro
