Went with less food this time - 3/4 a cliff bar and a gu 10 min before. No coffee or gator.

Zoot ultra shorts, Kinvara 4 (they are done), tech and long tech shirts, with mittens.

2k jog, no sprints as both inner quads are tight as hell from crossfit/obstacle day.

Slightly injured, lingering cough - so can't complain about this result. 1 min faster than last year.

Warm down:

Huge brunch, waiting around for draw prizes (free flights, 1000 dollars in gift cards - it's crazy).


Event comments:

Race has incredible door prizes, and a huge fancy brunch afterwards. My favorite race of the year for that sort of thing.
