Comments:

Reallt wanted to break 2hrs. Its a tough run though. I was on pace for it until I hit Sikome Lake hill.
I executed well though.Only walked at the aid stations, and had a potty break at 10k.
Was happy with the race. Was almost 13 minutes faster than last year, and a 1/2 marathon PB by 4 minutes.
What would you do differently?:

Seed myself closer to the front. Was congested like normal for the 1st bit, but i could have save some time there.

Warm down:

13 mins improvement, with a potty break too. Last Chance HM is very flat so I think you'll be gunning down that 2 hour target in Nov (provided the weather co-ops)
