Run
Comments: I ran as well as I could, given the crowds. I knew this race would be part people watching/dodging and part racing. I enjoyed all aspects of the run. What would you do differently?: Maybe get there earlier in order to get towards the front. I' could easily take a minute and half off the first 3 miles. But, I'm not sure that's worth it at this race... too much to see! Post race
Warm down: Walk to footstock, drink water, and scarf down a polish sausage... yum! What limited your ability to perform faster: My age, genetics, and loss of head hair.... oh, and those 30,000 other folks running, too. Event comments: A fun race, for sure. You've gotta be in the right frame of mind though, as this is more a costume party than a running race. The people watching was awesome! Last updated: 2008-04-08 12:00 AM

Got up early in order to have breakfast (yogurt, banana, breakfast bar) then meet some friends near the starting area at Mission and Embarcadero.
Rachel dropped me off about a mile from the start and I jogged and did a couple of strides to get the blood flowing.
