Comments:

143 total females. Felt good. Dropped 14 minutes off my last (and first) half. Stayed with a friend for the first 8 miles and then she bonked. She is a much faster runner so I was forced to keep up the pace. Maybe a little fast for the first half of race, although I was very pleased with my splits.
Post race
Warm down:

walk, stretch and EAT!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

fear that I had gone out too fast.
