Comments:

Best run yet, beat my old PR of 28 minutes. I really pushed it, wanted to see how hard I could go. Confidence has always been an issue with running, not really knowing what I can do. I wanted to do this run just so I could see how fast I could go.
What would you do differently?:

Work up to a fast pace rather then go hard right from the start. I was definately feeling it the last mile.
Post race
Warm down:

Easy walk to catch my breath

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Uncertainty

Event comments:

PR on this one, very happy with the result!
