Comments:

This was my first 13.1. my build up was good up until a month prior to the race when I moved from MD to IL. During the move and starting a new job made training difficult. I ran 4 times in the last 4 weeks one of which was a 5k (23:36).
What would you do differently?:

Find more time to train.

Event comments:

I only wish more local bands would have registered. The bands were quite spread out.
