Post race
Warm down:

a little walking and stretching followed by about an hour in the car (half driving)

What limited your ability to perform faster:

training. I missed my long run due to heel pain when my shoes died. Also, I think following my pacing plan a bit better would have save some more energy and I would have saved more energy for later in the race and would not have slowed down as much.

weather. It was a lot warmer than I expected. (about 25*F warmer at the start)
