Pre-race routine:

Got up at 7:15AM. Had a granola bar and some water. Tried to figure out the right race outfit... Left the house at 8:00AM for the five minute drive to the venue.

Event warmup:

Walked around to find the start line. Jogged for a couple of minutes. Chatted with a co-worker that did the 10 miler.

Comments:

Found my pace quickly and was able to stick with it. Sped up quite some at the last stretch.

What would you do differently?:

When there is so much juice left at the last couple of hundred yards, I should have been able to race faster in general.

Warm down:

Walked around a little and stretched... And then off to get some serious breakfast.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Missing running and racing experience, but we are getting there! :-)
