Pre-race routine:

Event warmup:

Did a little jog with T of approx 1/4 of a mile. My legs didn't feel ready to run even after the warm up.

Comments:

This is a PR for me. Beats previous of 26:01 which I ran last year.

Race was pretty warm
What would you do differently?:

Push a bit header to test limits. I'm still trying to figure out what pace is too fast.
Post race
Warm down:

Not much

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I don't know my max pace yet

Event comments:

They delayed the start several times saying they were moving road blocks.

The after race party was good. Lots of free beverages (I downed a couple of beers with our crew) and decent food (from what I hear - I didn't partake as nothing solid sounded very good).

My feet are sore. Blisters on outside of left foot and little toe on left foot as well.
