Comments:

Very flat course, well organized, lots of fun. Did 5 min run x 2 min walk intervals. Goal was to get under an hour and when I hit mile 4 I realized I'd have to run the last mile straight in order to get under an hour and I did!
What would you do differently?:

Get into a bit faster corral, or at the front of the corral, did a lot of weaving around people but that's to be expected with such a large event.
