Pre-race routine:

Kind of a spur of the moment thing. Signed up Friday, I wanted to do the half but found out the day I was going to sign up they sold out. Put the race out of my mind then decided to do the 10k last minute.
Event warmup:

Stood around, had a nice walk from my parking spot. Watched the start of the marathon.

Comments:

I really need to start seeding myself better for these races. I had to pass a lot of walkers before we even made it a mile. I have never really considered myself a runner, but maybe I am. It really took about 2 miles before things started to open up and I was able to get things going how I wanted to run and not have to dodge people. For a 10k that is too long, you are almost 1/3 into the race.

Next year I think I will run the full marathon.
What would you do differently?:

Start closer to the front.
