Comments:

Ran 13.1 one year ago and finished 2:02. This year, I was pacing a friend, loved the slow easy breathing throughout. Wonder if slooow runs are good fro distance training?

Also excited to do more sprint work since starting soccer.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing - maybe grab more banannas at the finish?
Post race
Warm down:

Hot tub and pool for a few hours with kids. Can't beat it. Felt great day after, slight soreness in heels left over from soccer.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Chose to run with a friend.

Event comments:

Would love to do it again and run it hard. Sub two, here we come. :)
