Pre-race routine:

Being that the zoo is only 1.5 miles away, I was able to sleep in! I ate a waffle with peanut butter, drank some water and drove myself to the zoo. I probably should have walked/jogged to the zoo like I did last year, but being alone in the dark makes me nervous. (I think I'm turning into my mother)

Event warmup:

I jogged from the parking lot to the line to pick up my chip...good enough!

Comments:

I had a great run. I just wanted to shave off some time from last year's race. I ended up taking off over 6 minutes!!! YIPPEE! I felt great.

What would you do differently?:

I would have planted myself closer to the start line. Getting through the zoo was tight. I had trouble passing slower runners. Once I was on the open streets, I did fine.

I love the zoo run. It's a great family activity as well.
