Comments:

I had bronchitis, and probably should not have ran today - I was pretty slow, even for me. It was fun though, and I would do it again.
What would you do differently?:

Watch pre-race nutrition, and treat it as a real race - I had food in my stomach and that caused a bit of cramping.
Post race
Warm down:

Did the 3k race walk.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Bronchitis & my pre-race nutrition choices. I probably should not have ran this due to my health.

Event comments:

Lots of fun, lots of awards, great volunteers. I don't think I could have planned a more fun Saturday AM.
