Comments:

Started out at good pace, not fast...into wind took shorter strides, with wind longer strides, almost floating. Was able to push moderately hard to the finish. Thought the pace was great for my first race ever, not too hard not too easy.
What would you do differently?:

Probably hydrate better pre-race, though it wasn't that bad.
Post race

Event comments:
