Comments:

Great day for a run!
This was my first 10 mile race and, thus, a PR (although Ive run a couple of marathons and currently training for my third).
I beat my goal of under 85minutes so I am happy! =)
What would you do differently?:

Arrive earlier!!
Post race
Warm down:

caught up with my husband and my friend and ate a nice breakfast!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Zig zagging through the crowd the whole time because I started late/not with my wave

Event comments:

Can't wait for next year!
