Pre-race routine:

good carb load with whole wheat pizza night before, whole grain waffles with fuit/egg for breakfast. Stretching 20 minutes before elite runners went out had another 25-30 min before my wave took off
Event warmup:

stretching...hanging out with a few friendly faces. Kept a steady pace was 30.49 at the 5K split and finished in 59:35 (25 seconds under my estimated finish)

Comments:

felt good, strong...always good when "ya can't wipe the smile off my face" during a run
What would you do differently?:

get into the front part of the wave so there are fewer bodies to navigate around when trying to get open
keep up the final kick from as soon as I see the last mile marker to the final mat
Post race
Warm down:

walk around, stretch, get power ade/water and a banana
