Comments:

My longest run this year has only been 6 miles. I had a good pace going into mile 10 and then was struggling to keep it close to 8 min/mile. Overall, I'm happy with my pace with my overall shape that I am in now. It was my first official half marathon so now I have a time to beat.
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

Mileage and training leading up to the race. I haven't gotten the training time in at all this year for anything longer than a 10k.

Event comments:

As always, plenty of volunteers (voluntolds if you know how the army works). Drink stations every 1.5 miles and a nice flat course. Very well put together.
