Comments:

wanted to run between 7-7:10's not looking to do anything great this is a "C" race for me. Right on pace through 7 miles but was hurting in my right leg along the outside to the top of the butt. Decided to slow down to 7:30 pace and run it in, just didn't feel good.
What would you do differently?:

nothing did not have it today, this is 3 straight races I have not performed well.
Post race
Warm down:

1.5 mile cool down very easy legs stiff and sore, felt better after cool down and streching

What limited your ability to perform faster:

pain in the right leg and lack of longer miles.

Event comments:

nice race to see where you are at physically, but lots and lots of turns. At this point in the year I would be better served to do the quarter run, 13.1 is just asking for injury.

Thanks for commenting on my report. Nice job as well. Way to stick with it and know when it's not happening and backing off. Even though you said it wasn't happening you still had a decent run for early in the season.
