Comments:

The first 5k I took easy and followed my planed pace of 5:36 min/km and gradually brought up the pace on the 2nd leg. I felt pretty good still so I decided to push a little harder than the planned 5:23 for the 2nd half.
What would you do differently?:

I could have ran a little faster pace for the first 5k. I think my fitness is better than my brain wants to admit.

What limited your ability to perform faster:
