That doesn't really sound like anything out of the ordinary.
Occasionally you may get that smell from moisture condensation on the engine and components that is evaporating off of them and your heads should be hot if you just got through running it hard.
The only way to be sure is to install an aftermarket temperature gauge that is marked in degrees or use a heat scanner gun to check engine component exterior temperatures.
