Comments:

I have no idea about AG rank or overall the race was hours ago and the official results still have not been posted to the website. A runner fell in front of me at the start which caused a little stutter at the beginning but nothing that would effect the outcome. Personal best - no complaints.
What would you do differently?:

Give myself more time to recover from the 1/2 Marathon I did last week (another personal best) I did speed work on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday then a 20K long run on Friday. I wasn't really rested for this race even though I turned in a personal best.
Post race
Warm down:

Shook some hands and headed to the car and drove home. Grabbed a shower then a bowl of oatmeal and a yogurt before heading off on a family outing walking around Montreal.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Being sore and tired.

Performance: Good
Course: This New Balance sponsored race is a good course. The mass start is a little crowded but the course itself is flat with 20 turns. There are two very tiny slopes (bridges that go across a canal) other than that the race is as flat as a pankcake.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
