Comments:

Planned to go out easy and try to pick up the pace the second half. first mile in 5:53 which felt pretty good. The weather started to get pretty bad as the run progressed. I never really slowed down but after the first half the effort seemed higher due to the increased wind and sleet.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing.
Post race

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Knees won't let me do speed work any longer.
