Comments:

I was really happy with my pacing, I knew I would have trouble after the 10 mile point if I went out too hard. I kept my target pace for the first 10 miles, then my left hip really started to hurt. I had to walk for a bit, then walk/run after that. I was really frustrated. My HR was good, I felt good except for my hip. Really annoying.

What would you do differently?:

Maybe try setting a little slower pace to see if it would help with the hip problem.

Warm down:

Drink water, walk around parking lot.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Left hip being sore.
