Seemed to take forever to put my socks on because my feet were wet from the water running down my legs into my shoes.
What would you do differently?:

Thinking about getting racing flats and running without socks. Could probably save a minute.

I caught up with my son on the run. I though about running with him and I wasn't sure what to do. I slowed down a bit, talked a bit and then kept going.

Run faster.

Warm down:

Went back out on the run course and ran in with Kyle.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I felt slow and sluggish the entire race, not sure why. Maybe the cold?

Event comments:

Small town race. I don't know the splits yet but I was first in my AG 40-49. The overall female was 52 minutes and I was 1:02. Next year I would like to get under an hour.
