Comments:

TOUGH RUN! Legs really fatigued after soccer game, and did not feel I replenished fluids enough. Took a positive outlook on the race and approached it as a training session to help my legs get used to pushing when they're fatigued.
Need to work on pace. First mile split was at 6:24, running much faster this year, so I need to pay attention to my pace. Start slower, target for mile 1 split of 6:40-6:50.
What would you do differently?:

Probably not play a soccer match so close to the race start...or at all.

Post race
Warm down:

Fruit, H20, and Powerade. Light stretch

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Playing in my soccer game
