Comments:

Ran w/ scotty too hotty. Nice and easy the whole time. I got a little antsy around mile 4 and started to push the pace and he told me to chill it :) It was way cold at the start so I wore tights, underarmor, gloves, and a beanie. After the turn around I began to push it a bit and talked Scott into a sub 7 last mile :)
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. Such a fun race.
