Pre-race routine:

  • 3.1 miles
  • 09m 07s  min/mile
Comments:

Drizzled the entire way. Used Glasses, and long sleave BCG. Dreseed just right. Was a littel hot at the two mile mark but felt OK.
What would you do differently?:

I would have walked the ten blockes to the start line instead of taking the shutle. If the weather ws better would have stayed to look at some of the craft booths that were out for the parade. Should have signed up earlier and had the packet mailed out to me.
Post race
Warm down:

Tried to dring water but could not. Walked around the Post race area collecting stuff. Drank the Odouls and it really tasted good after the race. Atea a bagel. Got back to League city and Jo and I went to Kelly's for 2 over medium, Bacon hashbrowns and toast.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

many runners and walkers did not line up acording to their pace and I had to zig zag around alot of people for the first half mile.

Event comments:

This race is alot of fun with all the volunteers yelling and cheering you on.
