Comments: Better than I anticipated since I had only really run once since the half marathon and my back still isn't 100%. I guess the half plus the temps must have helped. Plus, can't say I didn't have fresh legs! Felt pretty consistent for the whole course. Hills gave me some trouble - likely just the extra weight still. But for the most part, even kept the hills under 10min pace. What would you do differently?: Nothing. Felt good about the race. May have actually had a little more in the tank than I anticipated. ![]() Post race
Warm down: Hung out with Joe and his sister for a bit. Walked. Drove home, showered, and conked out on the couch. What limited your ability to perform faster: Training and weight mainly. Well, and age. Event comments: The one race I try not to miss each year. See lots of friends, and lots of people cheering along the route. Last updated: 2015-02-15 12:00 AM

Woke up at 5:15. 1 cup of coffee, a little cake, 1/2 grapefruit, water/G2, and cheese sandwich. Ate a bit more than usual. Also took a couple of Ibuprofen. Headed off at 6:15, arrived at 6:45.
Did a little warm-up jog around UHall parking lot, then stretched inside JPJ to keep muscles warm. Got to the start line, but probably should have gotten to the start a little earlier. Was behind too many slowish folks for the first mile or so.
