Pre-race routine:

got up at 5 had an english muffin and pb. drank some h20. drove to the race, realized the expressway (ie the only way i know to get to the race is closed). Got of I-75 at another flint exit and drove around flint till i found a road that wasn't closed that would get me to the race site. So glad i picked my packet up the night before.
Event warmup:

light jogging, light stretching, walked around looking for the other BTer's. Didn't find anybody.

Comments:

I actually think i was drinking too much. I was so worried about over heating and dropped my gu somewhere right after i passed up the krispy kremes that i made sure i took water at each aid station. My stomach was feeling funny. Maybe that was the beer i drank somewhere around the 4mile mark.
Regardless, i had fun and considering my lack of training over the last month, i'm not complaining.
What would you do differently?:

train.
Post race
Warm down:

walked around, ate a banana and a popsicle.

Event comments:

Could have used something other than h20 but I wasn't expecting it b/c they didn't have much in previous years.

Carbonated beer has that affect during long runs, but passing up the Krispy Kremes?!

Seriously, you took the beer over the Krispee Kremes?!  :shock:  Great race though- it was uber muggy!
