What would you do differently?: I intentionally did not push too hard the first half. In hindsight, I could have pushed harder. Post race

Got up at 5 and downed a big bowl of oatmeal, a banana and a couple glasses of water. Got to downtown around 6:30 and drank a "mix one".
I took a dozen different clothes to cover any possible temp/precip combination and trend. Temp was 44 when I arrived and drizzle with a forecast for greater precip and lower temps. I settled on a tech tee shirt, bike rain jacket with vents, shorts, mittens and cap. My rationale was to not have wet clothes and hope I stayed warm enough with the rain jacket. It turned out to be the right choice. Only wish I had rain proof shoes and socks.
Did a full body dynamic stretch before leaving the house and then again in civic center park.
