Comments: I am really happy with this race! I felt good warming up so I just went out hard. I ran the first mile in about 8:03, which was a little too fast, so I cut back just a bit and maintained a solid pace. Beat my previous 5K PR by almost 2 minutes! I think I have matured as a runner, mentally. I can push myself harder now and keep going even when I want to slow down. I think a season of triathlons and 2 longer road races (the 10 miler and the half) helped me mature. What would you do differently?: Nothing! Post race
Warm down: Found C and my dad, got a water, then found Pam and congratulated her on her new PR! We rocked it today! What limited your ability to perform faster: Nothing. Event comments: There was a mile marker at mile 1 but I did not see one at mile 2, which messed up my pacing a little. Overall this was a good early-season race. The HMF seems to put on a good show.

Drank a mocha around 8 this morning then ate a bagel around 11. Drove into Hartford with my dad and C, parked in my company garage, called Pam.
Pam and I ran around the block to get warmed up, then we lined up and fidgeted until the start.
