Comments:

Got off to a good start. Noticed some tightness or something in my calves and hamstrings for a brief time at the beginning of the race. Coming into the finish line I ended up in a sprint with a 10 year old and lost to him :-)
What would you do differently?:

Nothing
Post race
Warm down:

Had a Recoverite after the run plus half another bottle of water; about 22 oz. Stretched a bit while waiting for awards to start. Jogged around a bit before driving home.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

HEAT, the energy zapper. I was plenty warm at the end of the race.

Event comments:

Race Chip timed... Main reason why I chose to do this race.
