Comments:

I was very happy with this race. I had hoped to run it in about 25 minutes or less. Fact that I turned in sub-8 minute miles at altitude met my dare-not-hope-for hopes.

What would you do differently?:

Nothing.

Post race

Warm down:

walking/stretching.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Altitude, though I ran twice in Salt Lake City before the race.

Event comments:

Well organized. For a 5k, great support -- water station at half way point. Bagles, bread, cream cheese, fruit and doughnuts, and raffle at end. Red Bull too if you finish early enough. T-Shirts and participant ribbons for all. Trophies for overall winners. Medals and assorted gifts for those placing in age group.
