Pre-race routine:

Got up at 7, ate two blueberry pancakes, drank lots of water.

Left house at 8:20 to register, etc...
Event warmup:

Ran into a friend and fellow Tri team mate. Stretched and chatted. Found out we run at a similar pace, so it was fun to race with a partner

My first roadrace over two years. I kept the pace stady and worked on being patient. IT band felt fine.

The race is organized by the local Recreation Dept. and they did a great job. There was a 1-mile kid's fun run first. It was a fun race and I'll be back next year
What would you do differently?:
