Warm down:

Walked and stretched. Sat and cooled down with water, ate a banana and some sweet bread.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

A little more structured training for speed.

Event comments:

A fun run! Good crowd. Was a timing chip race, but still stage yourself towards the faster end of your expected pace. Many tour groups walk/run this race and they do clog the start.
