Comments:

The first 1.5 miles from Concrete/Asphalt/Wood chips had pretty good shin splint pain. After that either the pain went away or I forgot to hurt :) Opened my gait up quite a bit after about 2 miles and definitely did better, now to make this a habit!
What would you do differently?:

Pre-Hydrate; IPOD with my run tracks
Post race
Warm down:

Breath! Then ran a 1 mile fun run with my 3 youngest children. Caleb tore it up and ran like a banshee and we never caught him! Proud of my bride and kids!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Mind!

Event comments:

Volunteers misdirected the run resulting in the course being 5.2 miles in length instead of 6.2.
