Comments:

It was a beautiful run. I kept losing my wife, so I'd drop back, then move forward. I think I had a 2:00 in me, had I been running solo. Knee started twinging around mile 7, but nothing too unbearable.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing - this was a training race, and a beautiful day to run with the wife.

Warm down:

Beers @ squatters.

Event comments:

Given that the new owners literally had to put this together in only a few weeks, it was great. I'll be interested to see what next year holds.
