What would you do differently?:

Overheated in the first 6 miles so was stopping in every water station to pour cold water on my head and pick up sponges. Got that under control but then left knee started hurting to the point that I ended up walking/hobling the last 5 miles.

Event comments:

This was an inaugural race. Great for first timers since there were only 80 participants. It was a bit disorganized at the beginning but then things shaped up on time.
