Pre-race routine:

woke up 4:30 - stretched took in 1 Muscle Milk and some amminoacids, plus sipped on water the rest of the morning. Took in a Powerbar during the last 15 min before start. Stretched and met some of the people racing.
Event warmup:

walked to race site then stretch, stretch and stretch. Did a couple of short runs to get blood flowing but not too much.

Comments:

goal pace was 9:00 but felt good running 8:45. first mile was real fast. pushed real hard after mile marker 6 and passed 3-4 people I was pacing off.
took in a GU gel at 4.5 mile with a few sips of water.
What would you do differently?:

need to learn to keep my pace more consistent but it helped to pace off a few people that helped me "push" beyond my goal but not to exhaustion.
Post race
Warm down:

dod some stretching changed shirts to something dry

What limited your ability to perform faster:

nothing

Event comments:

lots of community involvement.
tihs is the 13th yr and was well attended. lots of prizes - even I won a prize. vendors were the right mix for this type of event: food, beer, others offering some nutritional snx.
GREAT JOB! overall 74 out of 176 finishers (not sure of # of starters)
