Comments:

Well it is a start to give me a PR. My goal going in was sub 24, but becuase this was my first stand alone 5K in years, I wasn't sure what was realistic.
What would you do differently?:

Try to run a little slower at the start and build for negative splits
Post race
Warm down:

Ran most of course again with my buddy looking for his wife who was waling with the baby.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not knowing how to pace myself for a 5K.

Event comments:

It was a cool idea to run this at dusk and have luminaries line the entire course. It was so foggy that at times you couldn't even see someone 20 yards in front of you.
