Comments:

The big hill on the way back is a killer. The whole course is uphill or downhill, so I tried to do it by feel. I think my first two miles were 6:17 each.
What would you do differently?:

I think I did it pretty well. Usually I have energy for a kick at the end, and I couldn't speed up much at all in this race.
Post race
Warm down:

Ran home.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I'm exhausted. I expect to do better when I run rested, maybe in the next few weeks.

Event comments:

This was a well-run race, and it's hardly more than a mile from my home. If they keep having it, I'll keep running it.
