Comments:

goal was to beat 8 min per mile and negative split, accomplished both, near middle was afraid with my splits I wouldn't have enough left to go faster for the last 5 miles, but managed to do it (downhill part of the course helped)
What would you do differently?:

not much, maybe run a couple of the early miles a little quicker
Post race
Warm down:

took a walk, used flex bands to stretch

What limited your ability to perform faster:

early season race, didn't want to push too hard

Event comments:

Liked the course, like the distance, felt a little runner's high during the race 2-3x, achieved goals, had fun
