Comments:

Terrible run for me. Was still getting over a cold and had only run about 4 miles in the last 10 days. Then I went out way to fast and paid for it the last 4 miles coming in. Not smart at all. Disapointing time since I ran a 1:37 last year. Oh well, chalk it up as a learning experience
What would you do differently?:

Go out much slower and take my time know how I felt.
Post race
Warm down:

Kept moving around taking some liquids

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Preperation and pace.

Event comments:

Once again no energy drinks at the water stops. What does it take to add some to a water stop????
