Event warmup:

Decided not to do the 12K as my left hip was niggling me.

Comments:

Bit dodgy on the road part as people didn't seem to recognize 100's of people running in the right hand lane. MEEP MEEP indeed. Sheesh. People are idiots.
What would you do differently?:

Not be injured.

Warm down:

GOODIES galore!!!! Made sure I got me some this time around. Free coffee too. Drove back to Leslie's sisters house for brunch and a well deserved soak in her hot tub. My left hip was utterly killing me by this time :(

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Injury

Event comments:

12K for me next year. I won't be injured, that's for sure.
