Comments: Needed longer warmup; legs felt like bricks for first mile. Went out too hard against wind and got side stitches at 2.5 miles; backed it down to a 9:30 pace until stitches went away, then picked up the pace again. Caught up with 22-yr old (didn't know age at the time) and we raced the last mile against each other. She won by a few seconds. What would you do differently?: Pace better, warm up more. Post race
Warm down: Burrito, massage, some stretch What limited your ability to perform faster: lack of warm up, pacing Event comments: love the medal! Only given to first 300 finishers. Felt a little bad for the folks coming in half hour after me that didn't get one. Last updated: 2010-02-14 12:00 AM

5:30 wakeup. Egg on toast. Left house at 6:30, which was nearly too late. Parking hassles, ended up running to start, got there just as the half marathon started.
Ran to start, about 1.5 miles from car.
