Comments:

Ran the first 5 miles fairly well and was on for a good time but the unexcpected sandy dirt trail climb really slowed me (and everyone else) down a lot. Legs felt like jello at end of this climb
What would you do differently?:

Need to practise more trail and hill running before this race again.
Post race
Warm down:

Long steady walk with water and bananas

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Tired legs running on soft sand in last mile or so

Event comments:

Enjoyable, but tougher than expected race. Would definitely do it again.

Performance: Good
Course: First mile was downhill and went very fast. After that the course felt about 80% uphill. From the 5 to 6 mille markers were all on dirt with a steep climb on sandy dirt trails within it which was very tough.
Keeping cool Average Drinking Just right
