Comments:

Felt good. Went out too fast, re-grouped in mile 2, started "drafing" to reel people in for the 3rd and thought about it more like a bike race, felt like I struggled getting back up to pace after the turn-around, found some people to run with the last two miles, and had a good kick. PR Baby!
What would you do differently?:

Stick with the same group that I went with on the out, they pulled away from me right after the turn-around, and I couldn't respond.

Warm down:

Normal stretch, water.

This was a great race for me.

Great PR course, I really like the shirts without a bunch of ads. Doing the double was great fun.
