Comments:

I was registered as a clyde son not sure on age group but did 30/112 in the division. The first 10K was good I stayed under 9 min miles. Then my right foot started to hurt a bit, new shoes 2 weeks ago that I did not get to break in enough. I still finished but with some really sore feet and little slower then I was hoping.
What would you do differently?:

Not get new shoes 2 weeks before the race.

Warm down:

Got a cold beer and then went to cheer for the runners doing the full.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I think lack of training and my foot starting to hurt, new shoes.

Event comments:

It was my first race so I dont have anything to compare it to but I thought it was a great enviroment and the weather was great. I will be back next year and who knows maybe I will do the full.
