Started out way to hard trying to hang with 1st and 2nd place. I was doing okay till about the start of mile 3 and went into full destruct mode. I actually began to feel light headed and about to pass out. I walked for about 10 seconds and felt better. Happy with the PR but again issues with pacing...
What would you do differently?:

pacing. Actually pace myself. But I always say that and never do it...
