Comments:

I don't think I'll ever be a runner, but I enjoy it no matter how I do. I also was still feeling headachy and stuffed up and yah my chest did burn on mile 2 and I had to walk for a bit. Otherwise I would have done a PR. Poop. There's always next time, right?
What would you do differently?:

Not a thing. I feel I did my best. Maybe not be sick, I could have gone a bit faster otherwise.

Warm down:

Wandered about getting free stuff

Event comments:

Really well organized. Don't have any complaints on this one. Loads of people telling us where to go, where to be etc. Marvellous! Will be back again next year (For the 10K according to Leslie!) *Gulp*
