Comments:

This was a well organized, well marked run. Perfect weather for a run.
What would you do differently?:

I was concerned that I started out too fast early on, but my concerns were unfounded. Wish I had more speed at the end, but that is what training is for. This was a good run for me so I have no complaints.
Post race
Warm down:

Not much. Walk to my car, drive home, shower, then back to work.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Training is always an issue. Plus I feel I am probably 15 pounds above optimal running weight for me.

Event comments:

I really enjoyed this race. Most people were very friendly including other runners. I'll do it again next year, and I'll come prepared to earn a better time.
