Comments:

Kept my pace fairly well. Garmin would not work in town due to the tall buildings, so I never really got good feedback as to where I was on the course.
What would you do differently?:

Use a stopwatch
Post race
Warm down:

Ate an apple and walked around

What limited your ability to perform faster:

This was my first ever try at 5 miles. the most I ever tried in preparing was 4.5 and 38 minutes.

Event comments:

Fun race of 5 miles. It would have been nice to ahve someone posted at the mile markers to cll the times and actually have mile markers. I only saw the first two markers.
