Comments:

Will and I started together. Next time we are starting in a Corral that goes out first. I had to leave Will to go to the port o can right in the beginning but was able to catch up to him around mile 7 or 8. Ran together a little towards the finish. I ran this one faster than I ever have a half. Felt the hurt but it felt good!
What would you do differently?:

Longer training plan.
