Comments:

holy crap it was crowded. i've never been in a run race this big before. I can't imagine how the big marathons work. it was a see of people and for the first mile at least you can't really break out of the "pack" pace which is too slow. need to start closer to the start line with the faster runners. so far it's the fastest pace i've had for 5miles!!!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

not enough training to prep for the race. slacked off after the haloween 10k.

Event comments:
