Comments: I had hoped to run this half at a 9 minute pace. I think for the first 15k, I held that fairly well. at around mile 11 I really felt tired. I stopped to walk several times in the last 2.5 miles. That killed my chances of a sub-2 finish, which was my goal. I really didn't have the training volume that I needed to confidently put out that kind of effort, I think. What would you do differently?: Train more, and carry my own nutrition. Post race
Warm down: I walked from the finish line to the other side of the Capitol building where my family was. I was waiting for a buddy who was running his first half. When he came by I jogged a block or so with him, and then walked back to the finishline with my fam. What limited your ability to perform faster: Training volume, and no speed work.

Up for breakfast well in advance.
Not too much of a warmup. I had to run from the parking garage to the hotel next door to get some cash. The nice ladies at the parking garage let me park inside and run over real quick.
