Pre-race routine:

This was a last minute decision. I decided since I was in town and it was close, I might as well race. I was planning on running this morning anyway. Got up on time and had a diet mountain dew on the drive over.
Event warmup:

Ran about 5 minutes easy before the race.

Comments:

Downhill start; uphill finish. Ran a good race. The uphill sprint was tough at the end. Race was slightly shorter than reported - 3.1 exactly for a 10:13 pace by my garmin.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. Was happy with this one.
Post race
Warm down:

A hot dog and gatorade. No beer at the Catholic School. You'd have thought they were Baptists.

Event comments:

Another 5K = another PR! Took 40 seconds off my time in February. Super stoked with my progress.
