Comments:

The second mile was the hardest. I walked at the drink station and at another point during mile 2. Wish I hadn't and I wish I would have pushed a little harder.
What would you do differently?:

More training outside to be prepared for the first cool race.
Post race
Warm down:

Stretch, light walking.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Adequate training

Event comments:

I was not adequately prepared for this race. I need some cool weather running attire and I need to continue running outside as opposed to the treadmill. I am pleased with my time because of the number of hills on the course and the brutal headwind. The event staff were very friendly and provided scrambled eggs, sausage and biscuits and gravy afterwards - and it was very good!
