Pre-race routine:

Since race didn't start until 9:00 I ate a bowl of Cherrios w/ dried cranberries at about 6:30.
Event warmup:

Stretching but didn't have much time as I took the whole family and we got there about 15 minutes before the start of the race.

Comments:

A perfect day for running. I liked the race a lot. It was very difficult to move in the beginning which forced me to run an 8 minute mile in the first mile. This might have worked to my advantage. That also included a 30 second restroom stop.
What would you do differently?:

We went out the night before so I had about 4 beers and stayed up until about 12:30. Not exactly perfect race preparation.

Warm down:

Stretch and watch the kids do the Monster Mash Dash.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Sleep deprivation and diet the night before.
