Post race
Warm down:

Stretched like hell & ate anything i could get my hands on.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

#1 Limited training due to problems with my right calf.
#2 Lack of an extra pack of gel caused my to keep a pace slower than i wanted to go due to my energy running low between mile 9 & 10.

Event comments:

Very Enjoyable experience,will be back.
Not a bad outing for my first half.
