Comments:

Run was good, didn't push it too much but just enough to get a decent time. Was very good on the hills/bridges and passed a lot of people. Haven't done a lot of speed work yet so the speed was hard to go any faster. Strong finish.
What would you do differently?:

Not much for a C race.
Post race
Warm down:

Stretching and drink G-Ade

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not enough speed work lately for that short of a race, also not doing a ton of running lately. But it was a C level race.

Event comments:

Good race, well organized and lots going on. A lot of people but done really well.
