Comments:

smaller crowd than I had anticipated for the 10k, but I still wasn't DFL. I did manage to reel in 2 of 3 other runners I had followed for the entire race. Also between mile 4 and 5 i was able to overtake a few who had passed me during mile one.
What would you do differently?:

weigh less, and do training runs more frequently.
Work on the back pain with the trigger point therapy book I just recieved.
Post race
Warm down:

walked it off in the parking lot, stretched when I got home.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

my ability to run faster; left lower back twinge prevented me from pushing harder on steeper grades.

Event comments:

Didn't stick around for the post-race, had to get home and changed for the school construction tour at 11.
