Comments:

If you've ever done the race, don't be fooled into grabbing a cup to drink at mile 1.....it's beer. Wait.....be fooled, then pretend you didn't know.

Shaved 4:10 off of last years time.

What would you do differently?:

With 4500 people racing, I'd try to get to the start/finish ealier. Too many walkers and dogs up front. Expended a lot of energy weaving, speeding up, etc. Probably could have shaved 2 minutes off with that.

Post race

Warm down:

Strech, Fuze, water, banana....parade

What limited your ability to perform faster:

See above

Event comments:

With the amount of participants....need pace groups or something to limit the people that have thier dogs/strollers. That's the only complaint....
