The start of this race is insane, huge sea of people. It was an awesome sight.

My performance and execution was perfect. I steadily increased my pace throughout the race and really kicked it for the last 5k.

Congrats on the finish. I don't think I have ever been is a sea of people before this. It was nuts. I don't like crowds so that turn around at mile 9 was a welcome site.
