Comments:

I had 6th place till the last 4 miles when my legs started to give out. I had run a long run a couple of days before the race, stupid me ;)
I hurt my already injured ankles a few times. Chafed terribly. Felt like hell the last 4 miles. But it was fun, especially when I sprinted past 2 runners in the last 200 yards.
What would you do differently?:

Nada.

Warm down:

Try not to puke while walking around.

Well, I don't have many trail runs to compare it to, but it was really hard. The trail went up and down the mountain quite a few times.
