Post race
Warm down:

Met up with fellow BTer's and tried to do a few intermittent stretches.

Event comments:

My Garmin had me at a 8:56 pace instead of 9:02 official result. It showed 10.11 miles and 1:30. I had a goal of 1:40 so coming in at 1:30 if fine by me. Also, thanks to DocSwim and Newleaf for giving me rides today.
