Warm down:

stretching and a swim

What limited your ability to perform faster:

road and trail condition - lack of speed work in late season training.

Event comments:

Race organizer needs to consider turning this over to some professionals - my wife had to help direct traffic in the parking lot so that the race director could get to the starting area. There were not enough life guards. The timing was botched - they gave the trophy to the wrong woman. I enjoyed the course and the people but am really hesitant to try this again unless some changes are made.
