Comments:

Started out with Joe and stayed with him through the first mile (maybe a little more), before falling off. This was not a great idea if my goal was fastest possible time, but it was fun trying. Just held on as best I could once I faded off the pace. Got the sub-20 I wanted, so can't complain.
What would you do differently?:

Smarter pacing.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked around chatting with various friends before a little 1 mile jog.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Trying to hang with Joe as I mentioned. Also, hammering a 5k 4 days prior probably didn't help.

Event comments:

Always a great time, really like the premise and huge field size. Wish I could get more co-workers to participate!
