Stretched thoroughly

Comments:

We went out fast and blazed through the first mile. However, the 2nd and 3rd miles saw us crumble a bit. Especially the 3rd. I never quite got my lungs under me. Never quite got a good breath in me
What would you do differently?:

Have some gatorade beforehand
Post race
Warm down:

had a massage, drank water.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

my stupid lungs

Event comments:

No shirt for those registering the morning of, only two flavors of bagels, no sports drink post-race, no muscle milk. The race itself is fine, the post-race leaves a lot to be desired. Very disappointed in that
