Pre-race routine:

Got there really early, but realized I left my in haler in the car. Thankfully Dan went back for it, but with the increased security it was right up to the last minute.
Event warmup:

Couldn't even get in to my 'corral' there were so many people. Had to wait for the gun to go off to work my way into the race.

Comments:

I don't really understand the difference between net time and time. They based the rankings on time - which was from the start of the race time until I crossed the finish line. I didn't cross the start line for about a minute and half. My actual time - Garmin confirms - was 37:49, but my "time" was 39:24. Not that it matters, but weird.
What would you do differently?:

Try to keep running, once I got through the first group.
Post race
Warm down:

Had to walk quite a ways to get to post race stuff and meet Dan

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Number of participants.

Event comments:

Just not my thing with so many people - 5019 as of Friday. Doing it with a group for a friend.... will do it next year with them if they do it, otherwise, not really for me.
