Comments:

I went out with a group that said they were going to average 7:25 mile, but that wasn't the case.Some of the early miles were near 7 min pace. That was faster than what I'm ready for and I paid for it once the hills kicked in.
What would you do differently?:

I would have started a little slower at the beginning of the race.
Post race
Warm down:

Jogging, stretching and lots of food.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not being ready for the initial speed and not ready to race on hills slowed my performance, however I'm still satisfied.

Event comments:

This is a great early season race. Great volunteers, great venue, and we get to stop and start in the middle of Finley Stadium which is nice. I look forward to going this race again.
