Comments:

My pace was very consistent. Usually I go out too hard and end up running my last two miles about 15-30 seconds slower than my overall pace. This time, my last two miles were the fastest. Could also be because there was more of a headwind on the first half of the course.
What would you do differently?:

Picked up the pace in the middle to make for a more miserable finish. I know that if I want to reach my marathon goalthat I am really going to have to suffer at the end of the race. I think I could have made the end a little harder on myself, but at the same time I was really dead at the end, so I don't know.

Warm down:

None. Oops

Performance: Good
Course: One loop course around Green Bay that finishes with a lap around Lambeau Field. Course was hillier than I thought and there was a decent head wind. A couple of the hills were pretty tough coupled with the wind. Pretty fun course.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
