Comments:

This run was great. I ran with my friend from work and this was her first race, besides the peachtree. It is a fast course, and there was a ton police support and volunteers. This is a great small race, well supported, and sweet tomoatoes provided post race food.
The 10k and i have not had a lot of success in the past so i was determined to break the 1 hour mark. My first couple of miles were much faster than i normally run. Then by mile 4 i had to back off the pace a bit. I kept a nice fast pace after that and added a couple of sprints. I felt like i left almost everything out on the run course. I am very pleased with this time. Next 10k will need to be faster.

What would you do differently?:

Run faster.

Warm down:

I cheered my friend over thr finish line, got some snacks, walked over to starbucks and headed home.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Just the ability to go faster!
