Comments:

The course was great. The hills were not that bad and there was alot to look at.
What would you do differently?:

I went out perfect according to the plan I had, but at around mile 4 or 5 I felt really good and started to go alittle fast. That continued until mile 15 and at mile 20 I hit the wall. Next time I will stick to my time plan better.
Post race
Warm down:

Did some light walking and stretching. When I got back home I went to the health club and sat in the hot tub, which was a great idea.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Going to strong from mile 5 to 15.
