Comments:

Wanted to go under 2.30 using race as a guide for marathon pace. Started faster then expected to. Didn't feel to bad so keep pace for majority of race. Struggled a little on last lap but am very pleased with result. Five minuutes faster then my goal. Didn't feel very competive and let people get away who I probably could have raced but not bothered. Last lap was hard felt a little sore when I finished.

What would you do differently?:

Spend longer on the warm up and involve soem stretching, really need to devise a rigid plan for the warm up and warm down thats is realisticv and that I'm goign to want to do before and after teh event.

Non existent
