First half marathon...no routine yet.
Event warmup:

Stretched. Didn't have a goal in mind other than to just finish, so didn't warm up as I knew I'd be running slow.

Comments:

At first I had no goals other than to finish. About mile 6 I wanted to come in right around 2:30:00 so I adjusted my pace. About mile 9 my quads started to cramp a little so I had to stop twice to stretch them out between miles 9 and 11. At mile 11 I felt really good, so decided to run the last two miles as fast as I could. Ran around 9:30 pace for the last 2 miles.
What would you do differently?:

Take more precautions for leg cramps before the race.
