Good run, felt fine and tried to keep an even pace.
What would you do differently?:

One of my better runs, maybe could have pushed it some more.
In hindsight had I known that I was 7 seconds off of third I would have tried harder to pass the guy in front of me, I saw him and just kinda stayed behind him.

Warm down:

Found wifey, had some water and a bannana

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Great race for me, rare day that I'm not sure I would or could have changed anything.
