Comments:

It felt ok being that I was sick on Monday and was not even able to train at all this week. Took the first mile out too hard and it bit me on mile three. I was below my goal time though. The hills after running on a treadmill were the worst though, I have not done hill training in over five months.
What would you do differently?:

Train hills more that way mile three does not hurt so much, and stick to my intervals.
Post race
Warm down:

Walking back to the car.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Being sick on Monday and not training for the hills.

Event comments:

This was a very well planned race with the whole neighborhoods involvement. There was a band on every corner and lots of people in their yards cheering the runners along. Would do the race again if I was still going to be in Syracuse.

Performance: Average
Course: The course was hilly as the name would suggest. The first mile was a fairly flat loop around the park and zoo. Mile 2 was for the most part down hill and as such was my fastest mile. Mile three was going back up the hill that we had run down. Mile four was a repeat of mile one.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
