Comments:

The verdict is still out on the UCAN, but I will still give it a couple more months of checking it out. I didn't have the energy level I normally do at the halfway point on a 5K but it might be because I was still recovering from the flu.
What would you do differently?:

Might eat a bagel with some peanut butter next round. I was trying to rely solely on the UCAN and that might have been a mistake.
Post race
Warm down:

Light stretches and talked with Jeff Shafer and his son. Jeff finished with an average of 7:01 a mile.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Still being slightly sick, at least that might be it.

Event comments:

Cool Breeze did a nice job and the Rubber Maid folks gave away a very nice bottle with a filter in the top. Nice touch!
