Comments:

What can I say...I came in with a goal of 7:10, and really exceeded my expectations with 7:06 pace. I had a plan to run hard on the hills, as there are 2 major hills and this is a hilly course. Than, take the downhills easy to bring my HR back down. Worked perfectly. Felt great at mile 8, and just pushed it hard. last 2 miles came in at 6:30 each, which I was actually fairly easy as it was all downhill. Could not have worked out better for me, next year 6:XX!!


What would you do differently?:

Maybe start out slightly faster, but not much. I really feel as if this was a great race and I ran it at a great pace. If I started out slightly faster the first 1-2 miles, I could have gone 6:5X, but not a big deal as I am very pumped with this time.
Post race
Warm down:

walked to car, got my duffel, walked back to meet up with my wife and friends to have a few beers and typical post race food.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

nothing

Event comments:

top notch event. 2,000 runners, good crowds and awesome views throughout the course. I'll be back next year....great time!

Awesome run cusetri!  Man that was perfect running weather.

I see you're doing the Boilermaker 15k, maybe I'll run into to you. My wife and I are doing it with friends when were on our annual NY family vacation.  BM sounds like a great time.
