Comments:

I ran well but was disappointed that the course was .3 too long! I still PR'd for 10K but it's deceiving as the course was long. They had to make last minute adjustments to course due to construction.
What would you do differently?:

I came up about 20 seconds short of the win. He was fading pretty badly and I should have let him go right at the start of the race instead of hang with him for the first mile. I may have been able to catch him if I saved a little bit.

Warm down:

Stretching.

Event comments:

My only complaint was the course being too long. Other than that the race was fine.
