Comments:

This was a good run, but it was incredibly hot for SF. Easily 80+ degrees, and the sun was relentless. I paced myself well, though, and did about as well as anticipated. Under cooler conditions, I believe a sub 44:00 is attainable, if not sub 43:00.
What would you do differently?:

Not much. I paced myself well for the conditions and was happy to break 45:00.
Post race
Warm down:

Lots of water, stretching, and then food.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

The heat.

Event comments:

Nice job by the volunteers. Lots of good food and drink after the race, and finishing inside the stadium was a nice touch.
