Pre-race routine:

Hung out in the VIP lounge (available by paying an extra $20) where we could stay warm (weather was windy and in the low 50s) and had private rest rooms and gear check.
Event warmup:

As usual for me, not a thing.

Comments:

As usual I started out fast, with the first two miles being under 7:40. About mid-way through the race. I was starting to feel tired and knew that my lack of running while being on vacation had gotten the better of me. Pushed through it and accomplished my modest goal, which was to finish under 1:45.
What would you do differently?:

Run more.
Post race
Warm down:

Went back to the VIP Lounge and had a couple of Spotted Cow beers. There's nothing like drinking beer at 900 in the morning.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Next to no running over the last two weeks due to being on vacation in Europe.
