Comments:

All things considered I had an ok race. I don't think there was enough water on the course. The two water stops had small dixie cups making it hard to get enough water without taking 2 or more cups. I experienced stomach cramps for the first time every during a run around mile 4 (a very unpleasant experience).

What would you do differently?:

nothing

Post race

Warm down:

Jogging back along the course to run in with my girlfriend.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of sleep and stomach cramps.
