Comments:

Good run, probably going out a little too fast, but felt good. Started loosing it after 1.5 miles. Close to sub 21. Pretty happy with time.
What would you do differently?:

Try to hit the 1st mile in 6:30 instead of 6:22. Would have given me more energy for the later stages of the race. Training has been consistent, need to keep it that way and increase.
Post race
Warm down:

None really.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Training.

Event comments:

An inaugural race, went off without a hitch. A fast course, w/ some wind.
