Comments:

Not feeling 100% but can't waste the IM training - ran a PR 5k last week, so used that time in McMillan to figure a potential 10K time. Beat that by a hair so maybe do another 5k race next week.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Volume in the last month has been low, but fitness is still high.


Event comments:

Slice of Papa John's pizza post race was a nice surprise. Wish they had choco milk or something.
