Pre-race routine:

Went for a 5 mi run to make up for yesterdays missed workout. Quickly ate w.w. Eng muffin with PB and honey, drank some coffee and we were off to the race. Just tried to stay warm in Starbucks before the race start.

Event warmup:

N/a

Comments:

Fun run with lots of people in costumes.

What would you do differently?:

Running with Amy was great. She's good for keeping me on pace and not burning out too early but I think I could have pushed harder the last mi and come under 27. Next time.

Warm down:

Beer.

Event comments:

Fun race but the lines into the host bars were crazy long. Not ideal when you have a baby sitter to get back to.
