Comments:

Ran the way that I wanted. Slow until the 3 mile mark, then "kicked it" (for me) at sub 9:00 pace
What would you do differently?:

Run harder throughout.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked around trying to find my carpool. Light stretching. Watched the kids race. Ate some bananas and drank some water.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Took it easy. Just a training run for Disney Marathon

Event comments:

30,000 is a lot of frigging people. Felt like I was playing frogger the whole 10 miles.
