Comments:

First few miles were with people who knew what they were doing, after that, it was just holding on and keeping steady. First walk at 6.5ish; after that, mostly hills. Wheels came off in the last few miles ... later than expected.
What would you do differently?:

Um, train?

Lack of training. As always.
