Comments:

Started off in the middle of the pack. Had to dodge a bunch of walkers in the first 1/4 mile. Held a pretty steady pace throughout the entire run. Legs started burning about mile 4. Did this race last year and what I remembered as being major uphills seemed like slight inclines this year :) Really wanted to kick at mile 5 but my legs wouldn't have any of that. I was able to get a kick going on the big downhill leading to the finish line but wasn't close enough to pass anyone.

What would you do differently?:

Another PR so nothing really :)
