Pre-race routine:

Drove over to a friends house to carpool to Madtown. Ate a bagel with peanut butter and a banana for breakfast. Our driver took us right to the start!
Event warmup:

Stood in the crowd waiting for our start! The race started at 10am and we didn't start running until 10:25.

Comments:

I ran with 2 friends. We were on pace for 10 minute miles, but slowed down when we saw people doing cpr on someone who had a heart attack. I hope he is ok, but have not heard anything about him.
Post race
Warm down:

Wandered up the stadium steps to find water or fruit, but couldn't find any so we gave up and walked a few blocks to a bar for drinks.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Watching them perform cpr - it puts life into perspective.

Event comments:

There was no water or fruit by the time we got done.
