Comments:

Got over the stress of not making it to Registration in time. It was a bit chilly out but it did not make a difference once we got going.
It was funny, I just hitched my entire race behind a girl that was flying! She had a great pace and wound her way thru the crowd like a pro! I almost had to let her go about a mile left to go. But, I stayed with/behind her and sprinted thru the finish.
Thanks to whoever you were and, man, you're fast! I think this was my fastest 8K ever! I only wish I had the chip timing.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing, absolutely nothing. This was a great run/race all thanks to my rabbit.
