Age graded % = 35.2, Age graded place 367/454

I finished 159/220 then I am in the 72% for women which is good. I finished 27/32 in my age group which puts me at 84%, which is not where I want to be. But this is a good starting point.
What would you do differently?:

Not be so fat, LOL. Not be so slow. But considering I am fat and slow for the moment I think I did good.
Post race
Warm down:

Breakfast at IHOP... at least it was eggbeaters.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Fatness. Slowness. The entire year of 2006. And 2006 is done and over and the fatness is going away...

Event comments:

This was the first year so I am sure it will be better next year. It was at a good time (10 am) for New Year's Day. It was also flat and easy with a couple of fun categories, like the formalwear division. I liked the t-shirt a lot but didn't get one because they ran out :(. I am sure they didn't expect as many people as they got. I still wish I had a t-shirt though.
