Pre-race routine:

took 3 caffine tabs about 9am and had a light breakfast. I then biked 20mins to the race to register and went and left 2 bottles of energy drink on the course for me to pick up later. Then waited for family and had a late, light lunch before making way to 2pm start.
Event warmup:

Walk up hill to race.
Run
  • 1h 08m 41s
  • 7 miles
  • 09m 49s  min/mile
Comments:

Set off too fast but once going under 10 min miles was on I really wanted to brake that.
What would you do differently?:

Go slower. Drink water not energy drink and use some other race nutrition. Carry a water botle in a hip carrier.
Post race
Warm down:

None

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Training so far - eating late and too light before run - found energy drink hard to drink (too sweet.
