Comments:

Went out fast for first couple of KM thought that I might have gone to hard and blow up later on the race. But just kept on pace kept HR in the 170 range which seems to be close to threshold for me. 175 seems to make me fairly winded.
What would you do differently?:

Not much I might have been bale to kick a bit more for the last KM but overall very happy. Knocked 10:31 off last years race so pumped about performance.
Post race
Warm down:

walked around drank water, some oranges. waited for friends and wife to cross finish line.

Event comments:

Great post race awards ceremony held at the local Legion. Sandwiches, fruit, drinks. Won a pair of Salmon trail running shoes for top local male.

Thanks. I peaked on that run. Had a look at the results and actually placed 4 th missed 3rd by 2:37 which is might have been doable but I might have cracked at that pace so ill aim for that next year.

I read somewhere about "bar ends" to put on your handle bars, do you recommend them? Is this similar to adding clip on aero bars?
