Comments:

Target was sub-90 and held 6:45 pace for first 6 miles, but was done by 7. Beautiful course, though.
What would you do differently?:

Relax a little more the night prior, don't go out quite as fast. I seem to do better negative splitting and not maintaining a constant pace throughout.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked some

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Lack of training 2 weeks prior (horrible weather leading up to race)

Event comments:

Wonderful experience!
