Pre-race routine:

Drank a some water, but not too much since I planned on drinking at each opportunity. No food, I have issues running with solids in stomach. Ran about 15 min to warmup
Event warmup:

Run light pace about 1.5 miles. Found that hat would be too hot.

Comments:

At 9 mi felt a twinge in IB band. Was able to work through it, but it affected 2nd half of the race.
What would you do differently?:

Need to stretch a bit more and prep more. Get the IB worked out
Post race
Warm down:

Little stretching

What limited your ability to perform faster:

psychology... first time at this distance. Held back. Could have finished a bit stronger.
