Comments:

The below zero windchill, and strong headwind made for a tough run. Hard to break a sweat and keep the legs loose. Concentrated on striding to the fullest and running a good pace.
What would you do differently?:

Set out faster to avoid the crowds.
Post race
Warm down:

Getting warm fluids in me and clothing on to prevent freezing.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

The weather.

Event comments:

The weather didn't stop over 1,500 people from running the 10K,5K or walk. It did make for tough times and to loosen up properly. Good lesson for the future in this type of climate though.
