Comments:

Nice run, very crowded at start resulted in about 2 minutes lost off time. The clock starts whether you are across the finish line or not. Still not a bad race for me.

2 weeks, 2 races, 2 PRs
What would you do differently?:

try to get in the front of the pack fro the start.
Post race
Warm down:

Light stretching, ride back to start with family

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Crowds at the beginning of the race made the start a disaster.

Event comments:

I like this race. It is pretty well organized (except for the start which is a disaster) and obviously the flat to downhill component of the race is nice.
