Comments:

first race i actually competed in. from the beginning, i had a good idea of what place i was in. ran with the same guys all race. used to passing people all race, but it was a level group. top 25 people were all under 1:30. oh, and i beat the top woman by 10 seconds. go Y chromosome!
What would you do differently?:

don't think i could have done much differently. went all out from the beginning.
Post race
Warm down:

congratulated those around me, pounded a water/gatorade and three beers. free lunch was good.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

f-in hills. i actually look forward to houston mary to see how well i can do on a flat course. i take it in stride. hills are good for me, and i appreciate what i have here.

Event comments:

Still a small operation. Good energy. Like every race I've done, not enough port-o-potties. Didn't affect me, but there was a line a mile long right before the race. Awards were exceptionally lame. Hurricane glasses?
