Run
Comments: Over all I am happy really tough in the start to get going. Walkers were told to start separately but they were everywhere with strollers and it was quite annoying. At 3k I was thinking finally getting into my groove then teh turn around and we came to a stop. it was crazy I had to walk probably 200 m 100 on each side of the turn around. After that is was good and took the hill nice and strong and am really happy with that last k time. It actually felt good to get out and run like that. I can't do that pace the whole time but the last bit I could have pushed longer and harder. What would you do differently?: Start closer to the front trying to get around walkers and stroller Post race
Warm down: through the food tent (mmmmmmmm cookies!!!!) and a walk around, to watch others finish What limited your ability to perform faster: I think the start but hey at least there are that many people out there doing it Event comments: Good race!! The race package pickup was a disaster to many different instructions coming through email on how to do it. Was a complete Cluster @#$% (you know what) They didn't have our shirts. They wanted you to pay to get in and get them because they had a health expo at the same time blah blah blah Last updated: 2008-04-27 12:00 AM

Woke up had a shower and some breakfast, a quick scan of BT then down to the Running Room store to meet up with some people.
Got to the store an hour before race time put my stuff upstairs and was ready to go. Jogged down to the start line and met up with my work team that we entered. Waited for most people to show up and get a picture but our picture taker didn't arrive. 7:50 get into a better starting spot.
