Comments:

Ran an awesome race. It has been a long time since I have run a 10k and I did not know what to expect.

I ran the first lap pacing with a group of solid runners who turned out to be 5k runners and then I was very much alone. The whole second lap was just running by myself trying to hold my position. I was about a minute behind the next guy up and about 1 minute ahead of the first place female.

I did drop two runners at mile 5 but they were fading fast and dropped way back.
What would you do differently?:

Run a bigger race with more competition. My 2nd lap was slower mostly because I did not have anyone pushing me.
Post race
Warm down:

1 mile cooldown jog and some light stretching

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Competition and lack of 10k specific training and recent experience. This was a tuneup race for Boston so I am not dissappointed.

This was after all, a PR by 1:38.

Event comments:

I would do this race again. It is a great cause
