Comments:

Cold before sunrise at start but nice after. very windy crossing the bridge at mile 10.
What would you do differently?:

not save so much energy for the bridge. looks big but is not that difficult. first half pace at 9'30 then second half at 8'30 pace.
Post race
Warm down:

gatorade, beer, music

What limited your ability to perform faster:

lack of speed training

Event comments:

Decent band playing at a nice outdoor venue. Not very many vendors but very nice area for family to play/picnic and listen to the music.
