Pre-race routine:

This race started at 9:00 which gave me plenty of time to catch a few more winks before the alarm went off. Had some oatmeal with honey and soy milk.
Event warmup:

It was pretty cold when I got to the race, so we sat in the car for a little while then drove to Starbucks to get some hot beverages. The line for the ONE portapotty was too long, so I went for a little warmup run.

Comments:

This was a super-flat course. It was not crowded at all. I ran this race last year and my time was the same this year.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. This was not an A or B race, just a little training race and to get some mileage. I was pretty happy for my time and came in second for my age group. The lady that beat me was an Olympic runner.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked around a bit, but stuck close to the finish line so I could cheer for my friends. Pancakes were served with fresh fruit and coffee. That was pretty good. Stretched some. I wore my new Mizuno shoes for this race and found I got a blister right under my right big toe. I never had a problem with blisters when wearing the ASICS.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

This is a pretty fast time for me, so I guess nothing limited my ability.

Event comments:

THis race benefits the Pima Community College track program so there are lots of students there volunteering and running.

Great job on your race!  Damn lady you're fast!  Can't be sad about losing to a Olympic runner. Geez! 

Sucks about the new shoes.  I only had one pair of Mizunos, and they were my last.  They cause a lot of my leg problems in 2005.  Switched back to my Brooks and I've been pain free.
