Comments:

Personal record 5K and improvement of 1:30 overall from last year's race. Did a good job not getting too caught up trying to keep up with the elite runners as I saw several others do only to hit a wall on the hills. Kept my own pace and set a PR.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. New personal record for my 5K which is nice coming off a disaster HIM run six days before. Very happy.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked around. Stretched. Grabbed water, gatorade, and a banana.

Event comments:

Very fun 5K in a great location and best of all it supports a great cause. Awesome race shirt. BIG improvement over last year's and probably the best race shirt I have received.
