Comments:

Pacing was close to perfect. Ran a negative slip by about 2 seconds. I should have believed in myself more and gone a little harder starting at mile 20. Hard to believe I missed my Boston Qualifier by 2 seconds.
What would you do differently?:

Run a little harder from mile 20.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Need to do more training at race pace.

They need to serve water in paper cups not the tiny little plastic ones.
