Comments:

I felt great during mile 4 and 5, I passed about 20 runners right after the 5 mile mark and picked off a few more. Mile 8 was rough, I've never raced more than 5 miles before and didn't know what to expect. Even though I felt lousy I kept a pretty good pace. The last mile was actually my slowest, I had nothing left. I expected to run at 7:30/8:00 pace, but ended up much faster!
What would you do differently?:

One more bathroom break, one less layer. The micro was a bit much, the under armor and cool max would've been fine. Kept the hat on for three miles.
Post race
Warm down:

My quad was really sore, easy stroll, stretch.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Nothing, I was a racehorse today!

Event comments:

Post race was great, soup, bananas, power bars, red bull.
