Comments:

Went out a bit too fast and HR was wayyyy high for the whole race. Best time ever though so it was lots of fun. Pretty spent at the end and hungry and thirsty.
What would you do differently?:

Drink more
Post race
Warm down:

Walk around, drink everything in sight, FRS, water,ice coffee, more water....rode bikes home, this was mostly uphill and the ole legs were complaining.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I didn't drink enough out on the course and wasn't really prepared for the warm temps.

Event comments:

I was able to be on the corporate cup team for work this year, I'm SO spoiled now!! It was a great time.
