Comments:

Was almost dehydrated at beginning of race which hurt me in humid conditions. Slow start helped me survive the distance and hydrate the fluid I should have had before the race.
What would you do differently?:

hydrate more before race. Start faster.
Post race
Warm down:

Ran back to mile 12 and waited until I found my wife nicole. Then I ran the last mile again with her. little or no stretching though.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

humidity was a factor. I wasn't properly hydrated before the race started. I had a slower start do to my position at the line.

Event comments:

Ok, this was my first race with over 2000 people and it was pretty amazing. The race was well planned and a wonderful fairly easy course.

Great job on the race.  Miami's always hit-or-miss on the weather in Feb.  Definitely gotta be hydrated.
