Pre-race routine:

Had a crazy morning. I let the dogs out and one of them escaped under the fence so I had to go find her. No time for anything to eat or drink. Ate a horrible dinner late last night at Applebees. I told my bf I wanted to eat somethingn decent, but who can order a grilled chicken when they have so many other yummier things on the menu?!
Event warmup:

jogged for about 4 minutes then stretched...this was about half an hour before the race started. Maybe I should have waited till closer to start time?

Comments:

My first and second mile times were great. I thought I was going to have a PR until I came around the corner and saw the big hill at the end. Seems like the course was pretty hilly, but only uphill!
What would you do differently?:

Need to eat better and start training on some hills.
Post race
Warm down:

What limited your ability to perform faster:

HILLS!!

Chicken sandwiches and other things before a race? What time of the day was it at?

Cursed Applebee's!!!  Hey, I'da scrapped the chicken, too. 

Well, you came out of it with some good lessons for your next race.  While you didn't PR, you should still be proud of yourself for finishing.  Great job, Maggie!
