Comments:

Beautiful course. 2 hills - one at mile 3 and one at mile 12. There are 2 beach sections that were considerably windy. The second beach section at about mile 8 was torture.
What would you do differently?:

Pray harder for no wind and start off a little slower (rookie mistake).
Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster:

The wind and pacing.

Event comments:

Great race, will do it again I'm sure.
