Pre-race routine:

Event warmup:

ran about 5-8 minutes did some good walking too.

Comments:

Well I wish I would of done a bit better but overall I felt I did good. The first mile is always hard then after that I start to settle in to my pace. The last mile I passed a few people and kept goin. saw the finish line in site I tried to push real hard but stomach acted up a bit so I cut back a little
What would you do differently?:

Maybe not have that blueberry muffin. Only more experience will make me better I will get there!
Post race
Warm down:

walked around with hands over head to get lots of oxagen into my system more. drank my gatorade and had a banana
