Comments:

I rocked this race. When I neared the turn around I counted the number of women in front of me. One....Two.....and Three was 10 feet in front of me...that left me at number FOUR!!!! That was an instant motivator
What would you do differently?:

grow some fast twitch fibers, so, I could have been 3rd overall women instead of 4th.
Post race
Warm down:

walked

What limited your ability to perform faster:

no fast twitch fibers

Event comments:

I finished 1st in my age group, what could have made this race any better than that!!!
