Comments:

Good run - my knee hurt on the downhills. It felt great going up the hills. This race was really crowded, I lined up with the 8 min/mile pace folks and wasn't able to get through the crowd to speed up as I would have liked. I didn't make it an issue and just ran the 8 min pace and enjoyed running in Central Park.
Post race
Warm down:

Powerbar and some gatorade. Jogged back around the park and back to the Hotel - probably about 3 more miles.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Crowded run.

Event comments:

I would have liked to receive a t-shirt since I was out of state to run this.
