Comments:

Trouble staying warm. Wore LS Tech Tee and Sweatshirt. Decided against tights. Bad decision. Hit the turn at 45:28, so O&B times very similar. NEW HALF MARY PR.
What would you do differently?:

Wear more clothes. Pushed really hard throughout, which was not the pre-race plan. Plan was to maintain 7:15 pace.

Warm down:

Never warmed up. Sat in truck

Cold weather, not enough clothes.
