Comments:

This was a break out performance for me. PR'd by over 6 minutes (different course). I was mentally tough and didn't give in. That was my fastest 13.1 but also my fastest 8k and 10k and 10 mile splits as well.
What would you do differently?:

Train more beforehand.
Post race
Warm down:

stretch it out. drank chocolate milk.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

The hills slowed me down some.

Event comments:

A wonderful venue with excellent support. T-shirt and medals were also of great quality.
