My left hamstring has been tight for 2 months and today was no exception. I couldn't get into a nice rhytmn and was landing on my heels a lot. On the bright side, I was a full minute faster than last year.

Warm down:

drank lots of water..It was getting very hot towards the end

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I needed a little more structured training coming into this race. It kind of snuck up on me.

I improved 6 spots OA and 2 spots in AG from last year with a larger field. Team Magic is the best...lots of post race food and drink..very well run
