Pre-race routine:

Gathered everything the night before. Wore arm and calf sleeves and Nike running tights. Two dry-fit short sleeve shirts and Brooks rain/wind jacket. Just right. Brought a change of clothing and it felt great to change out of the wet shirts into something dry.
Event warmup:

Did my normal leg swings, psoas stretches and hamstring stretches along with about a mile warm-up at an easy pace.
