Pre-race routine:

This was at the end of the day after wearing dress shoes and walking about 4 miles over the course of the day. I didn't know there was a race this year so the day before I spent my run doing hill work so my legs were pretty tight. There was no real routine for this one.
Event warmup:

I did some stretching and bouncing. I was only American in the race and all the announcements

Legs were sore for most of the way. I sandbagged the beginning a little bit and turned it on during the second 7 KM.

Performance: Good
Average HR was 166
Course: It went through the whole fairgrounds and into the buildings where the exhibitors were having big aftershow parties and receptions. It was really fun but it created a log jam near the start of the race. It would be better if the course stayed outside longer so people could spread out more.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
