Pre-race routine:

Ate, prayed and packed up to leave...right after 0600. I was going by myself today...I was lonely. Not real anxious though. I knew I was OK in the Grand Prix standing...just had to finish this race.
Event warmup:

Hopped around trying to stay warm.

Warm down:

I cooled down real quick b/c it was cool outside.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I really feel good about this run. I think if I got nutrition, I would have had the energy to kick it in in the last miles.

Event comments:

It is hard to believe that this is my last race...it was bittersweet. I ran this for my BFF's mom. Jill's mom died with Lung Cancer.

Performance: Good
Course: This was a beautiful course. Was a bit hilly...but not too bad. I loved all the views of the lake and felt pretty good the whole way until mile 8. My gel exploded all over me around mile 7 and I did not get any nutrition....and was VERY sticky. So I sorta hit a small wall b/c of this. I also really did not drink enough.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Not enough
