Comments:

Overall a great race! It was a little windy, but overall a great morning for a run!!

What would you do differently?:

First off, I would know the course better. Got a bit confused at the turn-around! Probably could have gained a little bit of time there. Also, I would run some the month prior to the race! Got sick in August so it's been a month since I've really worked out!!!

Warm down:

Walked to cool down

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not enough training the month prior!!

Event comments:

Started off too fast...Ran the first mile in 10:16. I have to learn to start slowly so that I have more for the end! I think I could have picked up some time if I'd paced myself better!!
