Comments:

It was great! I went out sort a fast and tried to get around the slower people and walkers etc etc. I ran with my friend Becky in mind since she has a nasty injury so I knew I had to run hard today. I think this is one of the funnest runs each year the food the people plus people cheering us one out of their yards on Thanksgiving day
What would you do differently?:

keep training and work on getting faster!

Warm down:

got to the finish mat and had to push my way through it very crowded! about 5K people finished this today

What limited your ability to perform faster:

just experience is all. I am pleased since I have almost been running only for 2 years so more experience and trainging will help me

Event comments:

I will always be back for this run it is just great!

I read in the paper that there were 7800 racers?  Totally crazy!  But fun.  Congrats on your race, your running is really improving!
