Comments:

very very happy with my run, the hills slowed me down a little, but I felt great and strong. Biking in KY as definitely helped. I tried to run real fast down the hills and the flats and I think it paid off.
What would you do differently?:

nothing

Warm down:

met Jim and the kids and walked back to KY over Purple People Bridge. Walking helps.

Event comments:

This has been the third time I've run the half pig, each time getting faster, so that's good. I like this course, a bit hilly but thats ok
