What would you do differently?:

Probably go out faster. I think I was overly conservative at the beginning because I was afraid of bonking at the end. Shooting for under 2 hours next time! I had a long sleeve t-shirt on and a sweatshirt over that. I was planning on ditching the sweatshirt before the start but it was just too cold.
Post race
Warm down:

Mostly wandered around looking for my wife since we didn't set a meeting spot. Lesson learned for next time!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Just conditioning. It was a perfect day weather wise and I didn't have any injuries.
