walked back to the car, it was cold out.

Excessive alcohol the night before. Possibly needed to improve pace a bit in first mile.

The volunteers were numerous and very helpful. The weather was cold! The timing system was excellent, results were up within 10 hours of the end of the race. This was the first running of the race, and it was very good.

Course: Flat for mile #1, paved for the most part. a good 1.5 mile segment is a path along the river that allows no more than 2 abreast. Some spots the boardwalk was wet and quite slippery. Wind was brisk, but not a factor.
