It was a great day for running.

Post race
Warm down:

Met up with fellow BTer's and tried to do a few intermittent stretches.

Event comments:

My Garmin had me at a 8:56 pace instead of 9:02 official result. It showed 10.11 miles and 1:30. I had a goal of 1:40 so coming in at 1:30 if fine by me. Also, thanks to DocSwim and Newleaf for giving me rides today.

Great job!

My Garmin had me at a 10sec/mi faster pace and a longer distance too! Odd.

I had 10.11 on my Garmin as well. With a big field, it's tough to run close to the race distance. You will always be over a little.
