Not too bad. I probably went out a little too quickly on the first mile but settled into a decent pace. Can't complain with a top 10 run.
What would you do differently?:

Pace myself better.

Not sure what was going on but I just had problems getting up to speed. The legs just took way too long to loosen up.

I felt like I paced myself much better on the second run. My pace fell off a little more than I'd hoped but overall not bad at all.
Post race
Warm down:

Just walked around and stretched.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Probably should have tapered a bit.

Another great event from Tuxedo Brothers.

I had a great race. I probably should have been a little faster but not too bad considering I absolutely did not taper for this race at all!
