Comments:

Average for me. I did want to beat my 5K but I got that niggling in my back again. I had gone to the chiropractor night before and he said don't push it so I didn't. It was all for fun though and a great way to start off 2008 for me.
What would you do differently?:

Not a thing.

Warm down:

Jumping in the lake is warm down enough I think. LOL

Back injury.

I think I was faster that 39:19. I forgot to stop my watch after jumping in. Oh well. I finished!!! YAY ME!

Looks like you had a lot of fun! Great video of the action, though I do not think I saw enough shivering going on.

Yeah, nothing like a shared ice bath at the end of a race

Not sure but I it looked like there was ice on the boatramp but the temps seem to warm for that. (At least in the air)

Looks like a great way to start out a fantastic season of racing
