Comments:

The course was a very narrow one which led to quite a bit of jostling for position. Once spread out, could run freely but passing was tough. Shoelace came untied during the 1st mile which created some lost time to stop, pull off to the side, tie up and start running again. Snow and wind in the face for the last mile made for a tough finish.
What would you do differently?:

Start closer to the front and push myself a little harder.

Stretching, walking to cool off, cup of jumbalaya and decaf coffee, with 2 bottles of water.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

The narrow course and weather conditions.
