Comments:

This was one of the hardest races I have ever done.. Brutal uphills, steep downhills, and tons of fun. I highly recommend it and I plan on doing it again soon.
What would you do differently?:

More training required!
Post race
Warm down:

Lots of walking, lots of water, lots of food to get energy levels back up. Need to do a little more hard stretches afterwards next time around, as I got a little stiff by the afternoon.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

The lack of intense hill running in my training routine.

Event comments:

Fun!

Performance: Average
Course: Longest 6k I've ever run, probably due to the hills. I've done most of this race in pieces before, as I run a lot in and around Royal Roads, but they're put a pretty sadistic mix of switchbacks and steep uphill grinds into this race.
Keeping cool Average Drinking Just right
