Drove down to the race, it did not start where I thought it did so I had to drive around for a while to find it.

Comments:

Started out well, right at 7:00 pace, my goal was to come in around 45:00.
I was on pace untill about 3.5 miles, I started to slow when I got too far behind the other 3 in my age group. Mental error!
What would you do differently?:

I should have started out with Chris and Michael, I can never seem to come from behind to catch people.
Post race
Warm down:

Nice ice cold beer!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Mental mistake by trying to play catch up to the leaders.

Event comments:

Excellent race, great course, plenty of volunteers. I hope they keep this race around!
