Pre-race routine:

Wasn't hungry AT ALL so ate nothing. Bit of water, drive to the college. Wore shorts but underarmor/long sleeve tech with hat/gloves as it was just barely above freezing with the wind. Wore warm socks and my big trainers

Event warmup:

400m or so around the campus to get the last pee break out.

Comments:

This was my first race 6 years ago, so I ran it anyway even though I probably should have bagged it.

Post race
Warm down:

Coffee, wait for door prizes and a few photos with friends. Oh and finally got a post race massage for the first time. Not bad idea for 10$

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Boston 2 weeks ago, Comic Con all Friday and Saturday. Knee super sore to touch (but doesn't hurt running).


Event comments:

I do this race every year. Hopefully a half in 5 weeks will be back under 1:30.
