Pre-race routine:

Not used to races starting at noon- kinda throws off your am routine timing - had toast/pb/banana around 8am and a hammer bar at 10:30. The race was in my hometown so no significant drive.
Event warmup:

jogged around for a half mile

Comments:

I was nervous that my leg would bother me during and after the run and this was the longest distance I've run in months. Luckily, my leg held out until it seized up an hour or so after. Lots of rolling, ice and PT on Monday.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing - 3 minute PR so I was pleased :)
Post race
Warm down:

I didn't really but I should have. I walked all the way to the car without limping so that made me happy too.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

lack of training.

Event comments:

No clocks on course. There was also a 5K and there were no signs for the 5k mileage (my friend did the 5K and she commented on that too). Otherwise, nice little local 5/10K that I'll probably do next year too.
