Comments:

I was completely satisfied. This was only my 3rd 10K ever and first running race of this year! Mostly just wanted to get seeded for the Peachtree Road Race. And I kept a very constant pace until the very end, which was good for me.
What would you do differently?:

Warm down:

drink WATER, stretch, and socialize :)

Event comments:

It was nice that they had the church gym open before the race and then we were able to go inside the Shamrock School's gym after the race, since the weather was a bit chilly.

There was no time chips, which seemed stupid since this was a Peachtree qualifier so not everyone started at the exact same time. Spend the first 1/2 mile trying to weave in and out of people.
