Comments:

Felt good, maybe went out too hard the first half, but I was not slowed down by passing people. The 3rd quarter was my slowest, but picked it back up the 4th, but the splits on my watch don't add up to my final chip time.
What would you do differently?:

Go harder to finish, I didn't puke at the end, so I must have had more in the tank.
Post race
Warm down:

Ran the course with Todd, then back to the finish to watch the elites.

Event comments:

The cooler weather kept some spectators away this year, but this is still one of my favorite races.
