chaotic start, rock got stuck in bottom of the shoe, 4 PM start time and christmas lights being lit up at the end. what more could you ask for??
What would you do differently?:

if this wasnt a last minute decision on the race and was actually a planned event i wouldnt have done the workouts leading up to this day...............

Warm down:

back onto the course to find triplettemom's son and ran the rest of the way with him, then got a pic taken with Santa himself (he said i have been very good this year!!!)

What limited your ability to perform faster:

well, lets see........workouts the previous days, 4 PM start time, rock in the bottom of my shoe, cold weather............

Event comments:

First year of the event so they get some slack. however, turning point to the finish needed to be more clear. someone i know missed it and it ended up costing her first overall female! volunteers were there, just not very vocal or active. one water station on the loop but you actually hit it three times so that was good. give this one a few years and i bet it will be pretty decent!
