Pre-race routine:

Woke around 5. Had normal race day breakfast: Oatmeal and coffee.
Drove to Amy's house to meet the gang, Andy - her husband, Steve, and Uncle Tom. Tom drove down. I drank about 1/2 L of water and ate a banana on the drive down. We parked on the Cobo roof. It figures they only had two of the five parking gates open.
Event warmup:

I stretched briefly inside Cobo where it was warm and when we stepped out for the race, I took a quick run to the nearest corner and back to get the muscles warmed up.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

My first mile was a touch slower than what I would have liked. I attribute the slow start to the congestion. The pack did not begin thinning out till just after mile 1.
