Pre-race routine:

The race started at 8am. Woke up at 6:30 and just got ready as if I was going to work. Nothing special.
Event warmup:

I ate a peanut butter sandwich and banana about an hour before the race. That combination works extremely well for me.

Comments:

I ran with a buddy so we kept each other honest in our pace. I like to keep my pace in the 9:00 to 9:15/mile pace. We wanted to push it a little bit this time around.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing - had to pee before the race started but there weren't any bathrooms available. Not a big deal.
Post race
Warm down:

Ate half an orange and drank some water. Had chocolate milk when I got home.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Nothing.

Event comments:

Fun 10k to start the weekend. Also nice to support a local cause.

Performance: Good
Course: It was a relatively flat course. I hate hills so even the slightest roll or hill is a pain in the butt. But overall a nice little route that I didn't know existed.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
