Comments:

It was too humid for me. This was not a good run. I was way too overheated to perform well here. there was a huge thunderstorm rolling in and actually i believe they cut the course short for anyone who hadn't started their second loop when I finished. Thank goodness for an early wave. The best part was getting my medal from Chrissie Wellington. She was really nice.
Post race
Warm down:

walked around and found the family. gathered my stuff, but they were breaking down the site b/c they were expecting some huge hail. Made it back to the campsite without incident and enjoyed the rest of the vacation at Gunstock Mountain Resort.
